Chk2 is a stable protein expressed throughout the cell cycle, and it appears to be largely inactive in the absence of DNA damage. CHK2 activation involves its dimerization and autophosphorylation, and induces the activation of the downstream signal effectors such as the tumor suppressor protein p53 and CdC25C, and also controls cdk2\/CyclinA activity.\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\nHTRF Phospho CHK2 Thr68 assay principle\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Phospho-CHK2 (Thr68) assay measures CHK2 when phosphorylated at Thr68. Unlike Western Blot, the assay is entirely plate-based and does not require gels, electrophoresis, or transfer.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Phospho-CHK2 (Thr68) assay uses 2 labeled antibodies: one with a donor fluorophore, the other with an acceptor. The first antibody was selected for its specific binding to the phosphorylated motif on the protein, and the second for its ability to recognize the protein independently of its phosphorylation state. Protein phosphorylation enables an immune-complex formation involving the two labeled antibodies and which brings the donor fluorophore into close proximity to the acceptor, thereby generating a FRET signal. Its intensity is directly proportional to the concentration of phosphorylated protein present in the sample, and provides a means of assessing the protein’s phosphorylation state 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\u003ePhospho Thr68-CHK2 2-plate assay protocol\u003cbr\u003e\nThe 2 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 additon of the Phospho-CHK2 (Thr68) HTRF detection reagents.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis protocol enables the cells' viability and confluence to be monitored.\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\u003ePhospho-Thr68-CHK2 1-plate assay protocol\u003cbr\u003e\nDetection of Phosphorylated CHK2 (Thr68) with HTRF reagents can be performed in a single plate used for culturing, stimulation, and lysis.
