The method is based on transfecting cells using plasmids encoding a SNAP-Tag, and subsequently labeling them with Terbium. Cisbio offers a large collection of such plasmids. All GPCR genes are cloned in an expression vector directly downstream from a CMV promoter, and are provided ready for protein expression and labeling.\u003cbr\u003e\nAll information on this page pertains to the Tag-lite plasmid cloned with the AT2 Angiotensin receptor.\u003cbr\u003e\nTag-lite assays offer many features and applications over traditional receptor\/ligand binding assays:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNon-radioactive\u003cbr\u003e\nHomogeneous and filtration-free\u003cbr\u003e\nReady-to-use kits and reagents for binding assays\u003cbr\u003e\nDoes not alter the receptor pharmacology\u003cbr\u003e\nPeer-reviewed, validated technology\u003cbr\u003e\nThorough kinetic studies with true Kd and Ki values, association (Kon) and dissociation (Koff) rate constants\u003cbr\u003e\nScreening and profiling of biologics and large molecules\u003cbr\u003e\nHow it works\u003cbr\u003e\nStep 1 - Plasmid transfection\u003cbr\u003e\nUse standard transfection techniques (refer to transient transfection protocol) to transiently express the SNAP-GPCR of interest in your cell line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eStep 2 - Receptor labeling\u003cbr\u003e\nSNAP-tag® is a small fusion tag that covalently interacts with specific substrates. It enables the specific and covalent labeling of any protein of interest (refer to labeling procedure). Cells are provided unlabeled, and need to be labeled with Lumi4-Terbium prior to running a binding assay. Labeling reagents are available in 4 different pack sizes from the Revvity catalog.\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\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eStep 3 - Understand the assay principle\u003cbr\u003e\nRunning a receptor binding assay using Tag-lite is as easy as it can get. Simply dispense 10 µL of labeled cells into each well, followed by 5 µL of labeled ligand and 5 µL of the compound you wish to test. Like all HTRF assays, Tag-lite assays do not require any washing steps.
