Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  VEGF-R2 Binding Assay
Description:  A competition binding assay (DiscoveRx KINOMEscan) was used to measure the ability of the compound to compete for binding of an immobilized adenosine triphosphosphate (ATP) site directed ligand using a DNA-tagged vascular endothelial growth receptor 2 (VEGFR2) as the target. The ability of the test compound to compete with the immobilized ligand was measured using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) of the DNA tag (Fabian, et al, Nature Biotechnology (2005) 23, 329-336; Karaman, et al, Nature Biotechnology (2008) 26, 127-132).A VEGFR2 tagged T7 phage strain was prepared in an Escherichia coli (E. coli) derived from the BL21 strain. The E. coli were grown to log-phase, infected with VEGFR2 tagged T7 phage and then incubated with shaking at 32 ° C. until lysis. The lysate containing the kinase was then centrifuged and filtered to remove cell debris. Affinity resin for the VEGFR2 assay was prepared by treating Streptavidin-coated magnetic beads with a biotinylated small molecule.
