Monitoring Opioid Receptor Dimerization in Living Cells by Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer (BRET)

open access: yes, 2014
Bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) is a natural phenomenon that has been successfully applied for the study of protein-protein interactions, including opioid receptor oligomers. The discovery of opioid receptor homomers and heteromers has brought to the finding of new functions and new way of signaling and trafficking; therefore, opioid ...

pHlash: a new genetically encoded and ratiometric luminescence sensor of intracellular pH.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
We report the development of a genetically encodable and ratiometic pH probe named "pHlash" that utilizes Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer (BRET) rather than fluorescence excitation.

In Vivo Biosensing Using Resonance Energy Transfer

open access: yesBiosensors, 2019
Solution-phase and intracellular biosensing has substantially enhanced our understanding of molecular processes foundational to biology and pathology. Optical methods are favored because of the low cost of probes and instrumentation.

A bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) assay to detect telomere length in S. cerevisiae

open access: yesbioRxiv
A method to measure telomere length in S. cerevisiae was developed based on bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET). The system uses energy transfer between a luciferase-Rif2 fusion protein and fluorescently tagged Rap1.

Optimized in vivo multispectral bioluminescent imaging of tumor biology using engineered BRET reporters

open access: yesiScience
Summary: The ability to visualize and track multiple biological processes in vivo in real time is highly desirable. Bioluminescence imaging (BLI) has emerged as an attractive modality for non-invasive cell tracking, with various luciferase reporters ...

ATP- and Adenosine-Mediated Signaling in the Central Nervous System: Purinergic Receptor Complex: Generating Adenine Nucleotide-Sensitive Adenosine Receptors

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2004
Adenosine A1 receptors (A1R) are able to form a heteromeric complex with P2Y1 receptors (P2Y1R) that generates A1R with P2Y1R-like agonistic pharmacology.

Setting up a Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer high throughput screening assay to search for protein/protein interaction inhibitors in mammalian cells.

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2012
Each step of the cell life and its response or adaptation to its environment are mediated by a network of protein/protein interactions termed interactome.

Application of FRET- and BRET-based live-cell biosensors in deorphanization and ligand discovery studies on orphan G protein-coupled receptors

open access: yesSLAS Discovery
Bioluminescence- and fluorescence-based resonance energy transfer assays have gained considerable attention in pharmacological research as high-throughput scalable tools applicable to drug discovery. To this end, G protein-coupled receptors represent the
