DescriptionChemiSCREEN™ Membrane Preparation Recombinant Rehsus Macaque CCR5 Chemokine Receptor
OverviewFull-length rhesus macaque CCR5 cDNA encoding CCR5
Background InformationCCR5 is the receptor for CC chemokines MIP-1α, MIP-1β, and RANTES (Raport et al., 1996), and is preferentially expressed on Th1 lymphocytes (Loetscher et al., 1998). CCR5 is a coreceptor for macrophage-tropic HIV, and its ligands potently inhibit HIV replication in human leukocytes (Cocchi et al., 1995). In addition, HIV-infected patients with the nonfunctional CCR5Δ32 allele exhibit delayed onset of AIDS symptoms (Samson et al., 1996), and pharmacological antagonism of CCR5 inhibits HIV-1 infection (Strizki et al., 2001). Preclinical testing of small molecule antagonists of CCR5 has been hampered by low affinity of the compounds to rodent and dog CCR5, but two such compounds, maraviroc and AD101, have been shown to have potent antagonist activity at rhesus macaque CCR5, which differs from human CCR5 by 8 amino acids (Napier et al., 2005; Billick et al., 2004). One antagonist of human CCR5, SCH-C, does not block HIV entry through rhesus macaque CCR5, and one amino acid difference is responsible for the functional difference (Billick et al., 2004). Millipore's rhesus macaque CCR5 membrane preparations are crude membrane preparations made from our proprietary stable recombinant cell lines to ensure high-level of GPCR surface expression; thus, they are ideal HTS tools for screening of agonists and antagonists of rCCR5. The membrane preparations exhibit a Kd of 0.32 nM for [125I]-MIP-1α. With 0.25 nM [125I]-MIP-1α, 5 μg/well rCCR5 Membrane Prep typically yields greater than 7-fold signal-to-background ratio.

Incubation ConditionsRECOMMENDED ASSAY CONDITIONS: Membranes are mixed with radioactive ligand and unlabeled competitor (see Figures 1 and 2 for concentrations tested) in binding buffer in a nonbinding 96-well plate, and incubated for 1-2 h. Prior to filtration, an FC 96-well harvest plate (Millipore cat. # MAHF C1H) is coated with 0.33% polyethyleneimine for 30 min, then washed with 50mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 0.5% BSA. Binding reaction is transferred to the filter plate, and washed 3 times (1 mL per well per wash) with Wash Buffer. The plate is dried and counted.

Binding buffer: 50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM CaCl2, 0.2% BSA, filtered and stored at 4°C

Radioligand: [125I]-MIP-1α (Perkin Elmer#: NEX-298 )

Wash Buffer: 50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 500mM NaCl , 0.1% BSA, filtered and stored at 4°C.

One package contains enough membranes for at least 200 assays (units), where a unit is the amount of membrane that will yield greater than 7-fold signal:background with 125I labeled MIP-1α at 0.15 nM
