Biological Information

Background Information:

The PathHunter® PTH Bioassay kit provides a robust, highly sensitive, and easy-to-use functional cell based assay to measure drug potency and detect neutralizing antibodies. This bioassay assesses PTH based activation of PTHR GPCR activity via detection of β-arrestin recruitment. The included cells overexpress ProLink-tagged PTHR and EA-tagged β-Arrestin-2. Activation of PTHR stimulates the recruitment of β-Arrestin-2 and produces EFC signal. Bioassay 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, control agonist, detection reagent, and assay plates.
