DRD2 - D(2) dopamine receptor
Order number: 70501
Description
We are excited to introduce our off-the-shelf, full-length, active, and native D(2) dopamine receptor, commonly known as DRD2. This G-protein coupled receptor inhibits adenylyl cyclase activity and is involved in reward-mediating mesocorticolimbic pathways. DRD2 has been also associated with schizophrenia and moreover it is the main receptor for many antipsychotic drugs.
Our DRD2 protein has been solubilized and stabilized using our NativeMP™ platform, ensuring it retains its native structure and full biological activity, making it ideal for various research applications.
