4-(Chloromethyl)-2-methyl-1,3-thiazole hydrochloride (4-CMT) is a fluorescent probe that can be used to study the function of G protein coupled receptors in cells. The probe is cell permeable and binds to its target of interest through complementary binding. 4-CMT has been shown to bind to dopamine D1 receptors, which are known for their role in neuronal activity. 4-CMT also binds to adenosine A2A receptors, which have been shown to inhibit long term potentiation (LTP). This may be due to the ability of 4-CMT to block the formation of heteromers between these two receptor types.
