FLIPRTetra® Screens of Ion Channel Function

HTS: 10,000 points per day

Benefits:
  • Turnaround time of 1-2 days
  • Uses adherent or non-adherent cell lines
  • Primary cultures of native cells available

Applications:
  • Primary screening of membrane potential, intracellular calcium, potassium (thallium) flux
  • Rescreening

Assays:

Intracellular Calcium – signaling by:
  • Calcium channels L & N-type calcium channels in clonal IMR 32 cells L-type calcium channels in clonal HIT cells & in acutely isolated cardiac myocytes Calcium channels in acutely isolated neurons Calcium permeable channels, e.g., TRPs, P2XRs Turnaround time, 1 week
    G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) linked to Gq
Membrane Potential:
  • All recombinant ion channel cell lines with maintained currents Tl+ flux for voltage-sensitive potassium channels
Customized molecular biology services for GPCRs and Tandem-Pore channels
