General description

Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M2 is expressed in the heart and many other tissues. The gene encoding it is localized on human chromosome 7.

Immunogen

GST fusion protein of a part of the i3 intracellular loop of human M2 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) corresponding to amino acid residues 227-356.1, 2

Biochem/physiol Actions

Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M2 plays an important role in regulating functions of the heart and activities like pain perception and cognition. It is regarded as a good model in GPCR (G protein-coupled receptor) biology pharmacological studies. This receptor has a function in airway remodeling and it enhances the proliferation of airway smooth muscle cells (ASM) which is induced by transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β).

Physical form

Lyophilized at ~0.3 mg/ml from a solution of phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% bovine serum albumin, and 0.05% sodium azide.

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediate cellular responses to various hormones and neurotransmitters and are important targets for treating a wide spectrum of diseases. Although significant advances have been made in structural studies of GPCRs, details of their activation mechanism remain unclear.
