Recombinant CHO-K1 cells have been created to stably overexpress human neurotensin receptor 1 (NTS1) on their surface. These cells contain high levels of both G protein Gαq and Gαs, which are crucial for coupling with the receptor in downstream signaling pathways.
Drug screening and biological assays
Neurotensin receptor 1 (NTS1 or NT1) is a G protein-coupled receptor that binds neurotensin, a neuropeptide involved in the regulation of pain, temperature, and gastrointestinal function.
