DescriptionChemiScreen™ Recombinant Human BB1 Bombesin/Neuromedin B Receptor Membrane Preparation
OverviewFull-length human NMBR cDNA encoding BB1
Background InformationBombesin, a bioactive peptide first identified in amphibian skin, is related to two mammalian peptides, gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) and neuromedin B (NMB). A family of 3 GPCRs, including NMB-R (BB1), GRP-R (BB2), and BRS-3 (BB3), mediate the biological effects of the peptides. The receptors differ in their affinities for the peptides; BB2 binds to GRP with 50-300-fold greater affinity than to NMB, whereas BB1 binds to NMB with 10-800-fold greater affinity than to GRP (Tokita et al., 2004). Binding of ligand to BB1 activates Gq to increase intracellular calcium concentrations. The CNS is a major site of NMB and BB1 expression, and BB1 appears to be involved in thermoregulation (Ohki-Hamazaki et al., 2005). Chemicon's BB1 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 antagonists of BB1 interactions with neuromedin B. The membrane preparations exhibit a Kd of 0.35-0.43 nM for [125I]-Bombesin. With 5 µg/well BB1 Membrane Prep and 0.3 nM [125I]-bombesin, a greater than 40-fold signal-to-background ratio was obtained.

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: P28336 # Receptor for neuromedin-B.
SIZE: 390 amino acids; 43453 Da
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P28336 ## Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
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, a GF/C 96-well filter plate 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] bombesin (Perkin Elmer # NEX258)
