AB-MDMSBA-Not a Synthetic Cannabinoid Receptor Agonist. [PDF]
This study uses classical in vitro pharmacology approaches to establish that AB‐MDMSBA does not bind to or activate the cannabinoid CB1 receptor and therefore should not be classified as a synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonist. ABSTRACT Synthetic cannabinoids remain one of the most prominent classes of New Psychoactive Substances (NPS).

A bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) system: application to interacting circadian clock proteins. [PDF]
We describe a method for assaying protein interactions that offers some attractive advantages over previous assays. This method, called bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET), uses a bioluminescent luciferase that is genetically fused to one candidate protein, and a green fluorescent protein mutant fused to another protein of interest ...

Imaging protein interactions with bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) in plant and mammalian cells and tissues [PDF]
FRET is a well established method for cellular and subcellular imaging of protein interactions. However, FRET obligatorily necessitates fluorescence excitation with its concomitant problems of photobleaching, autofluorescence, phototoxicity, and undesirable stimulation of photobiological processes.

A beginner's guide to bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) [PDF]
The Beginner's Guides are an ongoing series of articles in the magazine, each one covering a key technique and offering the scientifically literate but not necessarily expert audience a background briefing on the underlying science of a technique that is (or will be) widely used in molecular bioscience.

Luciferase-induced photoreductive uncaging of small-molecule effectors
Bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) has been mostly employed in imaging applications. Here the authors use BRET to activate a ruthenium-based photocatalyst and perform a bioorthogonal chemical reaction, which can be used to uncage small ...
