摘要:
The invention relates to a method for determining whether a test compound binds preferentially to a membrane receptor R1 or to a membrane receptor R2, these receptors being known to be expressed on the surface of the cells in monomeric, homodimeric or heterodimeric form. This method is applied using one or two FRET partner pairs.

Method for the detection in homogeneous medium of a post-translational modification of a proteinaceous substrate catalyzed by a cell enzyme, characterized in that the post-translational modification reaction takes place in intact living cells, in that these cells comprise a heterologous expression vector coding for a fusion protein comprising the proteinaceous substrate and a first coupling domain and in that it comprises the following stages: (i) Incubation of the cells in the presence or in the absence of a compound to be tested capable of modulating the activity of said enzyme, (ii) Addition to the reaction medium of a first fluorescent compound member of a first pair of FRET partners covalently bonded to a coupling agent capable of binding specifically to the first coupling domain present on the proteinaceous substrate, (iii) Addition to the reaction medium of a second fluorescent compound member of this first pair of FRET partners, and covalently bonded to a binding domain specific to the site of the proteinaceous substrate having undergone the post-translational modification and not binding to the non-modified proteinaceous substrate, (i) Measurement of the FRET signal emitted by the sample, this signal being representative of the quantity of proteinaceous substrate having undergone said post-translational modification; and cells for the implementation of said method.
摘要:
The invention concerns the use of the fluorescence polarization phenomenon to improve detection of fluorescent signals during a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). In particular, the invention concerns a method for improving signal/noise ratio in a FRET measurement. The invention also concerns an apparatus for measuring fluorescence following an energy transfer between a donor fluorescent compound and an acceptor fluorescence compound in a measurement medium.

The present invention relates to a method of revealing a biological process using a FRET measurement, which comprises the following steps: incorporating, into a measurement medium containing a lipid membrane, a biological entity X coupled with a first member of a pair of FRET partners and a second biological entity Y coupled with the second member of the pair of FRET partners, the energy-donating member of the pair of FRET partners having a long lifetime and the members of said pair of FRET partners being located on either side of the lipid membrane; exciting the measurement medium at the excitation wavelength of the energy-donating member; and measuring the FRET signal or the variations in said signal emitted in said culture medium.

摘要:
The present invention relates to inositol phosphate derivatives, in which the inositol phosphate is substituted with one or two reactive groups G or one or two conjugated substances or molecules M, said reactive group(s) G or said substance(s) or molecule(s) M being linked to IP1 via a linkage group L, M being chosen from the following group: a tracer, an immunogen, a member of a binding partner pair, a solid support.Application: tools allowing the study of the inositol phosphate cycle and therefore, indirectly, the study of seven transmembrane domain receptors coupled to phospholipase C, receptors having a tyrosine kinase activity, and in general enzymes involved in the variations of the intracellular concentration of IP1.
