Revvity HTRF Tag-Lite Kappa opioid Receptor Cells, 200 Assay Points

One of the major subtypes of opioid receptors, Kappa Opioid (or KOP; OPRK1) is predominantly expressed in the brain. The Kappa opioid receptor is highly involved in the stress system. KOP are thought to be implicated in depression pathophysiology and other psychiatric disorders characterized by reward dysfunction.

Cells expressing the KOP receptor are provided pre-labeled with Terbium, and can be used to conduct receptor binding studies on the aforementioned receptor.
