Cell-Based GPCR Reporter Assays - G-Protein Coupled Receptors

The G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily is comprised of an estimated 600-1,000 members and is the largest known class of molecular targets with proven therapeutic value. Invitrogen’s experienced team of GPCR biologists has generated a highly validated and novel family of GPCR cell line products to enable your discovery programs.

The portfolio contains two distinct assay platforms each utilizing FRET as the assay readout: Tango™ GPCR cell lines and GeneBLAzer® GPCR cell lines. Each GPCR cell line platform is available in two cell states: Division Arrested non-dividing cells and normal dividing cells. Click through our cell line product table below and capability links to the right to see how we can help accelerate your drug discovery efforts.
