Contributor Information

  • Name Gontzal García del Caño
  • Institute University of the Basque Country
  • Primary citation Saumell-Esnaola M et al. 2022. Microb Cell Fact. 21(1):192. PMID: 36109736.

Tool Details

  • Tool name: GST-tagged human cannabinoid CB1 receptor (amino acids 414 to 442)
  • Tool type: Protein
  • Tool sub-type: GST fusion protein
  • Sequence: Saumell-Esnaola M et al. 2022. Microb Cell Fact. 21(1):192. PMID: 36109736.
  • Molecular weight of the target: 29710.86 Da
  • Expression system: Escherichia coli
  • Application: Negative control for quantitative Western blot to determine CB1 receptor density in biological samples using antibodies raised against peptides within the sequence spanning amino acids 443-472 at the C-terminus of the CB1 receptor. Negative control in protein-protein interaction assays (e.g., GST pull-down surface plasmon resonance) involving proteins interacting with the CB1 receptor at the sequence spanning amino acids 414-472 of the C-terminal end of the CB1 receptor.
  • Description: Polypeptide spanning amino acids 414 to 442 (CB1414–442) of the cytosolic tail of the human cannaboinoid CB1 receptor fused to the C-terminus of the glutathione S-transferase (GST) tag. The linker between the GST tag and the CB1414–442 polyopeptide posses the consensus cleavage site LeuPheGlnGlyPro for the PreScission protease for removing the GST tag after purification.
  • Research area: Neurobiology; Cell biology; Molecular Biology; Biochemistry
  • Tag: Glutathione S-transferase (GST)
  • Additional notes: Contact the inventor for further information.
