Assays & Screening

— Biortus experienced drug discovery team provides a variety of screening options.

Temperature Related intensity Chang (TRlC)

TRIC (Temperature-dependent Intensity Change) is a fluorescence-based technique that measures the strength of biomolecular interactions by detecting changes in fluorescence intensity of a labeled target molecule when it binds to a ligand, which are amplified by a brief, precise temperature increase using an infrared laser, essentially allowing for high-throughput screening and affinity determination of various biomolecules like membrane proteins, protein complexes, and cell lysates in a homogeneous microplate format, as facilitated by the NanoTemper Dianthus NT.23 Pico Duo instrument at Biortus.

Benefits:

Do more with less protein.

Measure broad range of interaction, including protein-ion/carbohydrate.

Measure Kd independent of size and mass of binding partners.

Measure in solution, in close to native conditions, no immobilization required.

Applications:

Kd measurement in solution, include cell lysate
