Source

Human DRD2 Full Length Protein (VLP) (DR2-H52P3) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Met 1 - Cys 443 (Accession # P14416-1).

Predicted N-terminus: Asp

Molecular Characterization

*The isotype control of empty/mock VLP (Cat. No. VLP-N5213) is sold separately and not included in protein, you can follow the link for product information.

Structure

Virus-like particles (VLPs) are protein particles that mimic the shape of viruses but lack a viral genome, and incorporating transmembrane proteins on the external surface.

Synthesis Process

Envelope virus-like particles (eVLPs) are produced by co-expressing target membrane proteins with viral structural proteins in mammalian cells, enabling native embedding of membrane proteins into the lipid bilayer during VLP budding. This approach preserves authentic conformation, post-translational modifications, and orientation, while creating a completely detergent-free environment with repetitive multivalent display and strong immunogenicity making them ideal for immunization, binding assays in antibody discovery and screening (ELISA), and cell-based assays such as FACS, etc.

Endotoxin

Less than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method / rFC method.

Formulation

The VLPs are highly immunogenic, so the immunization strategy should be optimized (antigen dose, regimen and adjuvant).

Supplied as 0.2 μm filtered solution in PBS, Arginine, pH7.4 with trehalose as protectant.

Background Introduction

Dopamine receptor D2 (DRD2) is G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that belong to the D2-like dopamine receptor family, couple to Gi to reduce adenylyl cyclase. DRD2s are expressed in different neuronal cell types within the striatum, dopamine binding leads to the inhibition of dopaminergic synaptic transmission. Altered expression level and function of DRD2s are observed in Parkinson's disease, making DRD2 one of the most common therapeutic targets for Parkinson's disease. DRD2 agonists can reduce the side effects of L-DOPA and enhance the therapeutic effect.
