The CHO-K1-MTLR/Gα15-Stable Cell Line is designed to stably express the MTLR (motilin receptor) and the Gα15 protein. This cell line is useful for studying the signaling pathways activated by motilin, a gastrointestinal hormone.
Drug screening and biological assays
Motilin receptor (MTLR or MLNR) is a G protein-coupled receptor that binds motilin, a peptide hormone involved in the regulation of gastrointestinal motility and appetite.
