General Cell Based Assays
Eurofins Discoverx cAMP Hunter eXpress C5AR1 CHO-K1 GPCR Assay, 10-Plate Kit. (95-0079E2CP2L)
The cAMP Hunter C5AR1 eXpress kit provides an easy-to-use cell based assay to study drug candidates (small molecules or biologics) targeting GPCRs. This kit assesses ligand (e.g. C5a) based activation of C5AR1 GPCR activity via detection of decreasing levels of intracellular cAMP. This product uses EFC technology. The cells overexpress wild type C5AR1, a naturally Gi/Go coupled GPCR. Upon activation of C5AR1, the decrease in levels of intracellular cAMP leads to a decreased signal from EFC when the cAMP detection kit is applied. 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.

Eurofins Discoverx PathHunter eXpress CHRM5 Activated GPCR Internalization Assay, 2pl Kit. (93-0657E3CP5M)
The PathHunter CHRM5 Activated GPCR internalization eXpress kit provides an easy to-use cell based assay to study drug candidates (small molecules or biologics) affecting GPCR activation and internalization. This kit uses EFC technology to measure ligand-induced internalization of CHRM5 via detection of localization to the early endosome. The included cell line overexpresses EA-tagged β-Arrestin-2 as well as a ProLink-tagged early endosome protein and untagged CHRM5. Upon ligand-induced receptor activation, β-Arrestin-2 is recruited to the activated GPCR and the resulting CHRM5-arrestin complex is internalized to the early endosome, leading to production of EFC signal. 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.

Eurofins Discoverx PathHunter eXpress FGFR4-β-Klotho Functional Assay, 10pl Kit. (93-1060E3CP0L)
The PathHunter eXpress FGFR4-β-Klotho Functional Assay provides an easy-to-use cell based assay to study drug candidates (small molecules or biologics) targeting RTKs. This kit assesses RTK activation via detection of activated FGFR4 and β-Klotho dimerization-induced SH2 domain protein recruitment. This product uses EFC technology. The included cell line overexpresses ProLink-tagged FGFR4 and an EA-tagged SH2 domain protein. It also overexpresses an untagged coreceptor, β-Klotho. Upon ligand-induced receptor activation, SH2-EA recruitment leads to production of EFC signal. 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.
