Many Promega assays rely upon luminescent readings. Here, we describe Promega Reporter-based Bioassay Principles. Effector cells are engineered to express either FcγR, immune checkpoint, cytokine, or growth factor receptors/ligands, and luciferase reporters are driven by an appropriate response element that is based on the mechanism of action. In the presence of antibodies and/or target cells expressing the relevant antigen, the effector cells will transduce intracellular signals, resulting in luciferase activity that can be easily quantified.

Targeted Protein Degradation

Promega offers a platform of bioluminescence cell-based assays and energy transfer technologies that enable researchers to better characterize and develop effective degrader compounds in live cells. These assays can be used to answer key questions when studying and developing protein degraders, such as PROTACs.

To facilitate the study of popular protein degradation targets and to better understand cellular protein dynamics, Promega has a comprehensive selection of CRISPR-edited cell line pools and clones with a knocked-in bioluminescent tag at the endogenous loci of interest.

Benefits of endogenous tagging over overexpression models:

  • Monitor physiological expression levels: no gene dosage effect
  • Study genes under control of a native promoter and epigenetic regulation
  • Maintain stoichiometry with native interacting partners
  • Resulting in more accurate models of protein biology under physiologically relevant conditions.
