NanoBRET® Technology for Target Engagement
The NanoBRET® Target Engagement (TE) Assay measures compound binding at select target proteins in intact cells, in real time. The NanoBRET® TE Assay uses four key components: An expressed cellular target protein that is fused to the bright NanoLuc® luciferase; a cell-permeable fluorescent tracer that specifically binds to the target protein; a substrate for NanoLuc® luciferase; and a cell-impermeable inhibitor for NanoLuc® luciferase.
The assay uses bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET), achieved by transferring the luminescent energy from NanoLuc® luciferase to the fluorescent tracer that is bound to the target protein-NanoLuc® fusion. This energy transfer makes it possible to directly measure compound binding affinity as well as compound-target residence time.
Compounds that are applied to the cells and specifically engage the intracellular target protein-NanoLuc® fusion will result in a decrease in BRET. To ensure accurate assessment of intracellular target engagement, a NanoLuc® inhibitor is used to mitigate any extracellular NanoLuc® signal that may arise from cells compromised during handling, while not adversely affecting NanoLuc® luciferase expressed within healthy living cells
Analyze Binding Affinity and Permeability
The NanoBRET® TE Assay analyzes the apparent binding affinity and permeability of test compounds by competitive displacement of a NanoBRET® Tracer reversibly bound to a NanoLuc® fusion protein in cells.
The optimal NanoBRET® Tracer affinity is determined for each target protein.
The optimal NanoBRET™®Tracer affinity is determined for the bromodomain (BRD)-NanoLuc® luciferase fusion protein.
Directly Measure Residence Time
The NanoBRET® TE Assay directly measures the durability of compound-target engagement after binding in real time and provides information on full-length protein targets.
Evaluate Key Drug Target Class
The NanoBRET® Target Engagement Assay can be used to evaluate binding of compounds to BRDs, a key drug target class.
