DescriptionChemiSCREEN™ Membrane Preparation Recombinant Human APJ Apelin Receptor
OverviewFull-length human AGTRL1 cDNA encoding APJ
Background InformationApelin peptides have been discovered to be a family of peptides of different sizes that is derived from the N-terminus of a 77 amino acid precursor peptide (preproapelin) (Hosoya et al., 2000). Apelin receptor (APJ) is a G protein-coupled receptor that is activated by several apelin fragments. APJ activation leads to the inhibition of cAMP production. APJ and apelin peptides have been found to be involved in the regulation of cardiovascular function (Katugampola et al., 2001) and fluid homeostasis (Reaux et al., 2001). Broad roles of apelin system has been established in lowering blood pressure, as a potent cardiac inotrope, in modulating pituitary hormone release and food and water intake, in stress activation, and as a novel adipokine that is excreted from fat cells and regulates insulin (Lee et al., 2006) . Millipore's APJ membrane preparations are crude membrane preparations made from our proprietary stable recombinant cell lines to ensure high-level of GPCR surface expression; thus, they are ideal HTS tools for screening of agonists and antagonists of APJ. The membrane preparations exhibit a Kd of 0.4 nM for [125I]-Apelin. With 0.25 nM [125I]-Apelin, 5 g/well APJ Membrane Prep typically yields greater than 20-fold signal-to-background ratio.

Incubation ConditionsMembranes are mixed with radioactive ligand and unlabeled competitor (see Figures 1 and 2 for concentrations tested) in binding buffer in a nonbinding 96-well plate, and incubated for 1-2 h. Prior to filtration, an FC 96-well harvest plate (Millipore cat. # MAHF C1H) is coated with 0.33% polyethyleneimine for 30 min, then washed with 50mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 0.5% BSA. Binding reaction is transferred to the filter plate, and washed 3 times (1 mL per well per wash) with Wash Buffer. The plate is dried and counted.

Binding buffer: 50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM CaCl2, 0.2% BSA, filtered and stored at 4°C

Radioligand: [125I]-Apelin. (Perkin Elmer#:NEX-393 )

Wash Buffer: 50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 500mM NaCl , 0.1% BSA, filtered and stored at 4°C.

One package contains enough membranes for at least 200 assays (units), where a unit is the amount of membrane that will yield greater than 20-fold signal:background with 125I labeled Apelin at 0.25 nM
