Biological Information

Background Information:

The SPRINTer™ eXpress BRD4 Protein Turnover Biosensor Assay (HCT-116) provides an easy-to-use cell based assay to monitor drug-induced protein turnover of a specific endogenous target. Genome engineering or editing techniques, such as CRISPR/Cas9, are used to introduce a small tag into the endogenous locus of interest. This allows for the quantitation of changes in target protein levels when cells are treated with therapeutic agents such as targeted protein degraders. eXpress kits are a convenient, ready-to-use format which contains all materials needed to run the assay, including single-use vials of cryopreserved cells, cell plating media, detection reagent, and assay plates.
