Abstract:
Homogenous time-resolved FRET (HTRF) assays have become one of the most popular tools for pharmaceutical drug screening efforts over the last two decades. Large Stokes shifts and long fluorescent lifetimes of lanthanide chelates lead to robust signal to noise, as well as decreased false positive rates compared to traditional assay techniques. In this chapter, we describe an HTRF protein-protein interaction (PPI) assay for the KRAS4b G-domain in the GppNHp-bound state and the RAF-1-RBD currently used for drug screens. Application of this assay contributes to the identification of lead compounds targeting the GTP-bound active state of K-RAS.
