Background Information: | The PathHunter® IL17RA/IL17RC Dimerization eXpress kit provides an easy-to-use cell based assay to study drug candidates (small molecules or biologics) targeting receptor-receptor interaction. This kit assesses ligand (e.g. IL-17a) induced dimerization of IL17RA/IL17RC receptors. This product uses EFC technology. The cells included overexpress IL17RC target protein fused to PK alongside IL17RA target protein fused to EA. Upon ligand-induced dimerization of IL17RA/IL17RC, detectable EFC signal is produced. 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. |
