On Demand Webinar: Development of Ectonucleotidase Assay Methods Using the Transcreener® HTS Assay Platform
Wednesday, 10 May 2017
View the Webinar On Demand at Anytime Ectonucleotidases are plasma membrane-bound enzymes with externally oriented active sites that metabolize nucleotides to nucleosides. One example is ectonucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase-1, also known as CD39, ENTPD1, or NTPDase1. CD39 hydrolyzes ATP and ADP to AMP. Other ectonucleotidases such as CD73 process the AMP further into adenosine, which is

Ectonucleotidases: An Outside Chance for Drug Development
Friday, 28 April 2017
Sometimes, the most intriguing cellular processes happen outside of the cell. Case in point: purinergic signaling pathways, in which extracellular receptors sense levels of purines in the extracellular milieu. The result? A wide array of effects on neuronal signaling, vascular tone, thrombosis, and immune function. But what controls the level of extracellular purines? Enter ectonucleotidases:

New Publication: HTS Method for Measuring Drug Residence Time
Tuesday, 25 April 2017
View our latest publication, “A High-Throughput Method for Measuring Drug Residence Time Using the Transcreener® ADP2 Assay” in SLAS Discovery. Inhibitor residence times are increasingly being used to prioritize molecules early in lead discovery programs. Current methods for determining residence time are low-throughput or require the synthesis of labeled ligands. Our goal was to create

Detecting Rho-GEF Activity Using the Transcreener® GDP Assay
Friday, 24 March 2017
Rho GTPases act as molecular switches to regulate the cytoskeletal dynamics underlying cell motility. Rho GEFs (guanine nucleotide exchange factors) positively regulate Rho GTPases by accelerating GDP dissociation and allowing formation of the active GTPase-GTP complex. Active Rho GTPases typically stimulate cell growth and migration, sometimes triggering tumorigenesis or invasion. Selectively disrupting GEF action using
