| Description | ChemiSCREEN™ Membrane Preparation Recombinant Human β1 Adrenoceptor Receptor |
| Overview | Full-length human ADRB1 cDNA encoding the β1 adrenoceptor |
| Background Information | The endogenous catecholamines epinephrine and norepinephrine have profound effects on smooth muscle activity, cardiac function, carbohydrate and fat metabolism, hormone secretion, neurotransmitter release, and central nervous system actions. These activities are mediated by GPCRs belonging to two subfamilies, the α- and β-adrenergic receptors (Bylund et al., 1994). The three members of the β-adrenergic receptor family, β1, β2 and β3, couple to Gs to increase cAMP upon activation. In the heart, the β1 receptor constitutes 70-80% of the β-adrenergic receptors. Activation of cardiac β-adrenergic receptors acutely increases heart rate, cardiac output, and cardiac automaticity, and chronically increases cardiac myocyte apoptosis. In failing hearts, the β1 subtype is downregulated and desensitized, probably as a result of increased catecholamine levels. As a result, β-adrenergic receptor antagonists (β blockers) are effective in the treatment of congestive heart failure and arrhythmia (Lohse et al., 2003). Millipores β1 adrenoceptor 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 β1 adrenoceptor interactions. The membrane preparations exhibit a Kd of 2.6 nM for [125I]-(-) Iodocyanopindolol (ICYP). With 5 µg/well β1 Adrenoceptor Membrane Prep and 0.25 nM [125I]-(-)ICYP, a greater than 15-fold signal-to-background ratio was obtained. |

| Entrez Gene Number |
|
| Entrez Gene Summary | The adrenergic receptors (subtypes alpha 1, alpha 2, beta 1, and beta 2) are a prototypic family of guanine nucleotide binding regulatory protein-coupled receptors that mediate the physiological effects of the hormone epinephrine and the neurotransmitter norepinephrine. Specific polymorphisms in this gene have been shown to affect the resting heart rate and can be involved in heart failure. |

| UniProt Summary | FUNCTION: SwissProt: P08588 # Beta-adrenergic receptors mediate the catecholamine- induced activation of adenylate cyclase through the action of G proteins. This receptor binds epinephrine and norepinephrine with approximately equal affinity. SIZE: 477 amino acids; 51323 Da SUBUNIT: Interacts with GOPC and DLG4. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Localized at the plasma membrane. Found in the Golgi upon GOPC overexpression. DOMAIN: SwissProt: P08588 The PDZ domain-binding motif mediates competitive interactions with GOPC and DLG4 and plays a role in subcellular location of the receptor. PTM: Homologous desensitization of the receptor is mediated by its phosphorylation by beta-adrenergic receptor kinase. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. |
| Incubation Conditions | Membranes 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. 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, filtered and stored at 4°C Radioligand: [125I]-(-) Iodocyanopindolol (Perkin Elmer # NEX189) Wash Buffer: 50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 500mM NaCl, filtered and stored at 4°C. |
