CXCR4 (human) full length protein-synthetic nanodisc

Discover a breakthrough in membrane protein research and drug development with DIMA Biotech's Synthetic Nanodiscs. Traditional methods struggle with challenges in obtaining water-soluble and bioactive forms of multi-transmembrane proteins. Our innovative polymer-based Nanodisc platform offers a game-changing solution by excluding membrane scaffold proteins (MSPs), resulting in a cleaner system with fewer interferences for downstream assays. By disassembling cell membranes into nanoscale disc-shaped structures, our technology enables the purification of membrane proteins to high homogeneity under aqueous conditions. Explore how Synthetic Nanodiscs empower the functional characterization of multi-span transmembrane proteins in their active form, revolutionizing the future of membrane protein research and drug development. Protein function: Receptor for the C-X-C chemokine CXCL12/SDF-1 that transduces a signal by increasing intracellular calcium ion levels and enhancing MAPK1/MAPK3 activation (PubMed:10452968, PubMed:28978524, PubMed:18799424, PubMed:24912431). Involved in the AKT signaling cascade (PubMed:24912431). Plays a role in regulation of cell migration, e.g. during wound healing (PubMed:28978524). Acts as a receptor for extracellular ubiquitin, leading to enhanced intracellular calcium ions and reduced cellular cAMP levels (PubMed:20228059). Binds bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) et mediates LPS-induced inflammatory response, including TNF secretion by monocytes (PubMed:11276205). Involved in hematopoiesis and in cardiac ventricular septum formation. Also plays an essential role in vascularization of the gastrointestinal tract, probably by regulating vascular branching and/or remodeling processes in endothelial cells. Involved in cerebellar development. In the CNS, could mediate hippocampal-neuron survival. [The UniProt Consortium]
