| Technology | Benefit | Application |
|---|---|---|
| BacMam-enabled Cellular Assays | An efficient, easy-to-optimize, and robust method for interrogating specific signal transduction events in the cell background of your choice. |
|
| GeneBLAzer™ Reporter Gene Assays | The GeneBLAzer technology utilizes a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based, ratiometric detection method that reduces experimental noise, which can lead to false hits. | This technology is readily accessible for studying numerous target classes and cellular processes. |
| Tango™ Assay System | The Tango assay system provides a readout that is specific to the target receptor which ensures a selective readout. False positives are minimized because the readout is proximal to the actual site of receptor activation. Assay is independent of the G protein the receptor signals through which enables study of any GPCR (including orphans). | This technology is ideal for GPCRs; however, the same techniques can apply to other cellular protein-protein interactions. |
| LanthaScreen™ Cellular Assay System | Study posttranslational modifications in a physiologically relevant cellular context. With this assay format you can quickly screen with a simple and homogeneous high-throughput screening (HTS). Amenable assay format Interrogates the effects of your compounds on specific signaling events within a pathway. Analyze multiple post-translational modifications using physiological pathway kinetics. | This technology is designed to address specific interactions within signaling pathways. |
| CellSensor™ Cell Lines | Transcriptional reporter gene assay for high-throughput screening and profiling | These cell lines are ideal for analysis of an entire signal transduction pathway with a single endpoint readout. |
| Jump-In™ technology | Allows integration and expression of your gene of interest in mammalian cells at a specific genomic location. Isogenic stable cell line generation within 2–3 weeks. Ideal for studying orthologs or various genetic mutations rapidly without concern about positional effects. | This technology is universally applicable for any mammalian cell line engineering project. |
| Luciferase Assays | Allows you to investigate promoter activity by measuring light output from luciferase enzyme that is expressed under the control of a response element or a promoter of interest. Luciferase enzymes vary in stability, light output and spectral characteristics. Flash and glow kits are available for different luciferases to perform single- or dual-spectral luciferase assays. The luciferase reporter genes are human-codon optimized and offered in a plasmid vector that is optimized for mammalian expression. | These assays allow monitoring of reporter gene activity during drug discovery and screening phase. |
