Data Sheet
Background: Prokineticin receptor 1 (PK1 or GPR73) is a receptor for the cysteine-rich secreted peptides prokineticin 1 and 2. RT-PCR detected GPR73 expression in the brain, testis, small intestine, ovary, thyroid, pituitary and salivary gland.
Application: Functional assays
Figure 1. Dose-dependent stimulation of calcium flux measured with MultiscreenTM Calcium 1.0 No Wash Assay Kit (Multispan MSCA01). Figure 2. Dose response of intracellular IP1 accumulation upon treatment with ligand, measured with IP-one Tb kit.
