Applications: Cynomolgus GPRC5D binding assays; screen for cynomolgus GPRC5D ligands or antibodies.
Background: The orphan G protein-coupled receptor, class C group 5 member D (GPRC5D) is a retinoic acid-inducible protein with seven transmembrane segments and a short N-terminal extracellular region. The strong and selective expression of GPRC5D in Multiple Myeloma cells, similar to the expression pattern of B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA), makes it a promising target for the treatment of Multiple Myeloma. It is anticipated that GPRC5D will be an alternative CAR T cell target for Multiple Myeloma immunotherapy.
