Journal Article
Peach, C. J., Kilpatrick, L. E., Woolard, J., & Hill, S. J. (2021). Use of NanoBiT and NanoBRET to monitor fluorescent VEGF-A binding kinetics to VEGFR2/NRP1 heteromeric complexes in living cells. British Journal of Pharmacology, 178(12), 2393-2411. https://doi.org/10.1111/bph.15426

Background and Purpose:
VEGF‐A is a key mediator of angiogenesis, primarily signalling via VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR2). Endothelial cells also express the co‐receptor neuropilin‐1 (NRP1) that potentiates VEGF‐A/VEGFR2 signalling. VEGFR2 and NRP1 had d...

© 2020, The Author(s). To study the localisation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) in their native cellular environment requires their visualisation through fluorescent labelling. To overcome the requirement for genetic modification of the recept... Read More about Ligand-directed covalent labelling of a GPCR with a fluorescent tag in live cells.
