Revvity, 63ADK114PEG, HTRF SARS-Cov2 Spike S1 Protein Detection Kit, 500 Assay Points

Overview
The SARS-CoV-2 Spike S1 protein is one of two part of the virus Spike protein (S). The S1 subunit is responsible for the the virus interaction with host cells' transmembrane Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptors (ACE2), while the S2 subunit is capable of conformational changes that allow the fusion of the viral particle envelope and host cell membrane upon S1/ACE2 binding. As such, the S1 protein is closely investigated for its role in viral infection and is reliable marker of infection as well as a potential vaccine immunogen target.
HTRF assays offer many advantages over other technologies:

Homogeneous add-and-read format
No wash steps
Low background
Straightforward miniaturization from 96- or 384-well microplates to high density assay formats such as 384-well low volume and 1536-well plates
Stable signal, providing flexibility in time of readout or size of assays
How it works
SARS-CoV-2 particles are detected in cell lysates using a sandwich immunoassay involving an anti-S1 monoclonal antibody, labelled with terbium-Cryptate or d2, ensuring assay quality, reproducibility, and signal quality. The specific HTRF signal generated is proportional to the amount of S1 proteins.

 

The assay protocol, using a 384-well small volume plate or a low volume 96 well plate (20 µL final), is described on the right. 16 µL of cell lysates or control are dispensed directly into the detection plate for detection by HTRF reagents. The antibodies labelled with HTRF donor and acceptor can be pre-mixed and added in a single dispensing step to further streamline the assay procedure (4 µL), or separately (2 µL).
