Biological Information
Background Information:
The PathHunter® BMPR1B/ACVR2A Dimerization eXpress kit provides an easy-to-use cell based assay to study drug candidates (small molecules or biologics) targeting receptor-receptor interaction. This kit assesses ligand (e.g. BMP-6) induced dimerization of BMPR1B/ACVR2A receptors. This product uses EFC technology. The cells included overexpress BMPR1B target protein fused to PK alongside ACVR2A target protein fused to EA. Upon ligand-induced dimerization of BMPR1B/ACVR2A, detectable EFC signal is produced. 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.
