PathHunter® eXpress KDR/KDR Dimerization Assay

Background Information:

The PathHunter® KDR/KDR 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. VEGF-121) induced dimerization of KDR/KDR receptors. This product uses EFC technology. The cells included overexpress KDR target protein fused to PK alongside KDR target protein fused to EA. Upon ligand-induced dimerization of KDR/KDR, 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.
