ChemiScreen™ Kappa Calcium-Optimized FLIPR Cell Lines by Merck
Chemicon's cloned human kappa-expressing cell line is made in the Chem-1 host, which supports high levels of recombinant kappa expression on the cell surface and contains high levels of the promiscuous G protein Galpha15 to couple the receptor to the calcium signaling pathway. Thus, the cell line is an ideal tool for screening for agonists and antagonists of the kappa receptor.
