Introducing Novel cell-based PathHunter™ assay for Cytosolic Kinases

Finally a non-ELISA, screen friendly cell-based assay platform for cytokine receptors and the cytosolic tyrosine kinases.

•Saves you months of assay development
–Simple, no wash, one-step and ready-to-screen assays
•Uses Full length receptors and kinases
–Screen for small molecule agonists, inhibitors or functional antibodies
–Identify biologically relevant and specific inhibitors
•One step, Direct Assays without need of Antibodies
–Ideal for monitoring JAK1, JAK2 or JAK3 activity on cytokine receptor phosphorylation

JAK1, JAK2 and cytokine receptors PRLR, CSF3R... Read more»
