POT1 Stability and Binding Measured by Fluorescence Thermal Shift Assays [PDF]
AbstractThe protein POT1 (Protection of Telomeres 1) is an integral part of the shelterin complex that protects the ends of human chromosomes from degradation or end fusions. It is the only component of shelterin that binds single-stranded DNA. We describe here the application of two separate fluorescent thermal shift assays (FTSA) that provide ...

Olfaction is essential in some behaviors of honeybee, such as nursing, foraging, attracting a mate, social communication, and kin recognition. OBPs (odorant binding proteins) play a key role in the first step of olfactory perception.

Novel Fluorescence Competition Assay for Retinoic Acid Binding Proteins [PDF]
Vitamin A derived retinoid compounds have multiple, powerful roles in the cellular growth and development cycle and, as a result, have attracted significant attention from both academic and pharmaceutical research in developing and characterizing synthetic retinoid analogues.

Applying a high-throughput fluorescence polarization assay for the discovery of chemical probes blocking La:RNA interactions in vitro and in cells. [PDF]
The RNA-binding protein La is overexpressed in a number of tumor tissues and is thought to support tumorigenesis by binding to and facilitating the expression of mRNAs encoding tumor-promoting and anti-apoptotic factors.

Characterization and Functional Analysis of OcomOBP7 in Ophraella communa Lesage
The olfactory system plays a key role in various insect behaviors, and odorant-binding proteins participate in the first step of the olfactory process. Ophraella communa Lesage is an oligophagous phytophagous insect that is a specific biological control ...

AFBI assay – Aptamer Fluorescence Binding and Internalization assay for cultured adherent cells [PDF]
The SELEX (Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential Enrichment) process allows for the enrichment of DNA or RNA aptamers from a complex nucleic acid library that are specific for a target molecule. The SELEX process has been adapted from identifying aptamers in vitro using recombinant target protein to cell-based methodologies (Cell-SELEX), where

Development of a quantitative fluorescence-based ligand-binding assay [PDF]
AbstractA major goal of biology is to develop a quantitative ligand-binding assay that does not involve the use of radioactivity. Existing fluorescence-based assays have a serious drawback due to fluorescence quenching that accompanies the binding of fluorescently-labeled ligands to their receptors. This limitation of existing fluorescence-based assays

High-throughput fluorescence assay for membrane-protein interaction
Membrane-protein interaction plays key roles in a wide variety of biological processes. Although various methods have been employed to measure membrane binding of soluble proteins, a robust high-throughput assay that is universally applicable to all ...
