Yellow Fluorescent Protein Quenching Assay for Analyzing Odorant Receptor Activity.
Odorant receptors (ORs), recognized as the largest subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR), are increasingly identified as membrane proteins crucial not only in nasal but also in various extra-nasal biological processes. However, researching the functions of these extra-nasal ORs is challenging due to the limited availability of ligands, posing a significant barrier to comprehensive studies. Large-scale screening with in vitro assays, such as the halide-sensitive yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) quenching assay, is crucial for deorphanizing ORs. This protocol employs the YFP quenching assay to identify OR-ligand interactions, thereby advancing OR deorphanization research.
期刊介绍:
For over 20 years, biological scientists have come to rely on the research protocols and methodologies in the critically acclaimed Methods in Molecular Biology series. The series was the first to introduce the step-by-step protocols approach that has become the standard in all biomedical protocol publishing. Each protocol is provided in readily-reproducible step-by-step fashion, opening with an introductory overview, a list of the materials and reagents needed to complete the experiment, and followed by a detailed procedure that is supported with a helpful notes section offering tips and tricks of the trade as well as troubleshooting advice.
