Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells were transfected with mtAEQ, P2Y5 cDNA (or the empty vector), and GαΔ6qi5myr. P2Y5-specific intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) induction was determined by subtracting the change in the [Ca2+]i level in vector-transfected cells from that in P2Y5-transfected cells.
