Revvity, 64SMAD2TPEH, HTRF Human and Mouse Total SMAD2 Detection Kit, 10,000 Assay Points

Overview
The Total-SMAD2 cellular assay kit is designed to monitor the expression level of SMAD2, whether phosphorylated or unphosphorylated.
It is compatible with our Phospho-SMAD2 kit, and enables the analysis of phosphorylated and total proteins from a single sample for a better readout of TGF-ß signaling activity.
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
Total-SMAD2 assay principle
The Total-SMAD2 assay quantifies the expression level of SMAD2 in a cell lysate. Unlike Western Blot, the assay is entirely plate-based and does not require gels, electrophoresis, or transfer.
The Total-SMAD2 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 SMAD2 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.

Total-SMAD2 2-plate assay protocol
The 2 plate protocol involves culturing cells in a 96-well plate before lysis, then transferring lysates to a 384-well low volume detection plate before adding Total-SMAD2 HTRF detection reagents.
This protocol enables the cells' viability and confluence to be monitored.

Total-SMAD2 1-plate assay protocol
Detection of total SMAD2 with HTRF reagents can be performed in a single plate used for culturing, stimulation, and lysis. No washing steps are required.
This HTS designed protocol enables miniaturization while maintaining robust HTRF quality. Application-Cell Signaling
