Like the other members of the Bromodomains and Extraterminal (BET) family (BRD2, BRD3, and BRDT), BRD4 comprises two bromodomains which bind acetylated lysine residues on proteins, such as histones. Associated with Cyclin T1 and CDK9, the three proteins form a multiprotein complex called P-TEFb, and control gene transcription. As well as its role in transcriptional control, BRD4 is involved in DNA damage response.\u003cbr\u003e\nInhibition of BRD4 function is part of the strategy for cancer treatments. More recently, targeting BRD4 degradation via PROTAC molecules has emerged as a novel and promising therapeutic approach.\u003cbr\u003e\nHTRF assays offer many advantages over other technologies:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHomogeneous add-and-read format\u003cbr\u003e\nNo wash steps\u003cbr\u003e\nLow background\u003cbr\u003e\nStraightforward miniaturization from 96- or 384-well microplates to high density assay formats such as 384-well low volume and 1536-well plates\u003cbr\u003e\nStable signal, providing flexibility in time of readout or size of assays\u003cbr\u003e\nHow it works\u003cbr\u003e\nTotal-BRD4 assay principle\u003cbr\u003e\nThe HTRF Total-BRD4 assay quantifies the expression level of BRD4 in a cell lysate. Unlike Western Blot, the assay is entirely plate-based and does not require gels, electrophoresis, or transfer. The Total-BRD4 assay uses two labeled antibodies: one coupled to a donor fluorophore, the other to an acceptor. Both antibodies are highly specific for a distinct epitope on the protein. In presence of BRD4 in a cell extract, the addition of these conjugates brings the donor fluorophore into close proximity with the acceptor, and thereby generates a FRET signal. Its intensity is directly proportional to the concentration of the protein present in the sample, and provides a means of assessing the protein’s expression under a no-wash assay format\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n        \n\n\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n        \u003cbr\u003e\n  \n\n      \u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n      \u003cbr\u003e\n        \u003cbr\u003e\n        \u003cbr\u003e\n        \u003cbr\u003e\n        \u003cbr\u003e\n      \u003cbr\u003e\n    \n\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n      \n\n      \u003cbr\u003e\n        \n\n      \u003cbr\u003e\n    \n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eTotal-BRD4 two-plate assay protocol\u003cbr\u003e\nThe two-plate protocol involves culturing cells in a 96-well plate before lysis, then transferring lysates into a 384-well low volume detection plate before the addition of Total-BRD4 HTRF detection reagents.
