Dopamine D2R/DRD2 Overexpression Lysate

HEK293T cells in 10-cm dishes were transiently transfected with a non-lipid polymer transfection reagent specially designed and manufactured for large volume DNA transfection. Transfected cells were cultured for 48hrs before collection. The cells were lysed in modified RIPA buffer (25mM Tris-HCl pH7.6, 150mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 1mM EDTA, 1xProteinase inhibitor cocktail mix, 1mM PMSF and 1mM Na3VO4, and then centrifuged to clarify the lysate. Protein concentration was measured by BCA protein assay kit.

The DRD2 Dopamine Receptor is involved in the neuromodulation of appetitive behaviors. DRD2 may be linked to alcoholism and other substance-use disorders. Mutations in DRD2 in mice lead to the suppression of reward behavior with morphine and to the reduction of spontaneous movements, a phenotype resembling Parkinson's disease. Three alternatively spliced isoforms have been identified. DRD2 has been reported to be expressed in various regions of the brain, as well as in aorta, artery, eye, and spinal cord. ESTs have been isolated from normal pituitary and in brain, colon, lung, pancreas, and skeletal muscle cancer libraries.
