Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Binding Assay
Description:  The affinity of FXR ligands for the ligand binding domain of FXR was determined using a commercially available human FXR ligand binding assay (LanthaScreen, Thermofisher Cat # PV4833). The purified ligand binding domain of human FXR tagged with GST (glutathiones-S-transferase) is incubated with a terbium labelled anti-GLT antibody and a fluorescein-labelled SRC2-2 peptide (LKEKHKILHRLLQDSSSPV (SEQ ID NO.: 1)). Binding of FXR ligands to the FXR ligand binding domain promotes binding of the fluorescein-labelled SRC2-2 peptide. This causes a FRET signal between the terbium-labelled anti-GST antibody and the fluorescein-labelled SRC peptide which are both bound to the FXR ligand binding domain.Test compounds are dissolved in DMSO and a 3-fold serial dilution series is generated, then further diluted into assay buffer. The compounds are mixed with 5 nM GST-tagged FXR ligand binding domain, 5 nM Tb-labelled anti-GST antibody and 500 nM fluorescein-labelled SRC2-2 peptide in a pH7.4 buffer. The reaction is incubated at room temperature for 1 hour, then the FRET signal is measured as the ratio of the 520 nm/495 nm emission following excitation at 340 nm. The change in FRET signal is plotted against the test article concentration and fit to a 3-parameter logistical equation.
