Revvity, 64PD1PEH, HTRF Human PD1 / PDL1 Binding Kit, 10,000 Assay Points

Overview
Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD1) is an immune checkpoint receptor that regulates T cell response. Its ligand, programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), is commonly over-expressed on a tumor cell surface. When PD1 is bound to PD-L1, T cell response is suppressed, contributing to tumor immune resistance. Checkpoint inhibitors blocking PD1/PD-L1 complex formation are generating considerable interest in cancer immunotherapy.
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
Assay principle
The PD1/PD-L1 binding assay includes tagged human recombinant immune checkpoint partners (PD1 and PD-L1) and labelled anti-tag reagents for HTRF detection. Without an inhibitor, PD1 binds to PD-L1, and the binding of each detection reagent to its tagged target generates an HTRF signal. In the presence of compound, standard, or an antibody blocking the PD1 /PD-L1 interaction, the HTRF signal decreases.

 

Assay protocol
This PD1/PD-L1 binding assay can be run in a 96- or 384-well low volume white plate (20 µL final). As described here, samples or standards are dispensed directly into the assay plate, and the tagged PD1 & PD-L1 proteins are then added, followed by the dispensing of the HTRF reagents. The reagents labelled with HTRF fluorophores may be pre-mixed and added in a single dispensing step. No washing steps are needed. The protocol can be further miniaturized or upscaled by simply resizing each addition volume proportionally. Application-Protein-Protein Interaction
