Measure 3CL protease (3CLpro) inhibition or screen for inhibitors with the live cell, fluorescent 3CLglow assay. The 3CLglow sensor expresses a green fluorescent protein in the presences of the 3CLpro enzyme as well as a constitutively expressed red fluorescent protein to monitor cell health and compound toxicity. The assay is packaged in BacMam for expression in mammalian cells. BacMam provides even, near 100% transduction efficiency in HEK293 cells as well as expression in many other cell lines, iPSCs, and primary cultures including A549s and HUVECs. Expression is easily titrateable to your experimental needs or to adjust assay sensitivity. This kit includes the 3CLglow sensor BacMam, 3CLpro enyme BacMam, and 500mM sodium butyrate in H2O. 5mL and 60mL sizes are also available.

Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) allows very convenient assays by utilizing the highly water-soluble tetrazolium salt WST-8 [2-(2-methoxy-4-nitrophenyl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)-5-(2,4-disulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium,monosodium salt] produces a water-soluble formazan dye upon reduction in the presence of an electron carrier. Cell Counting Kit-8 is a one-bottle solution; no premixing of components is required. Cell Counting Kit- 8, being nonradioactive, allows sensitive colorimetric assays for the determination of the number of viable cells in cell proliferation and cytotoxicity assays.

Measure cyclic AMP (cAMP) signaling kinetics, screen GPCRs for Gs activity, and more with the live cell, fluorescent, cADDis cAMP assay. Add the cADDis sensor to your cells and measure robust signals the next day on an automated plate reader or fluorescence imaging system. Decreasing green fluorescence indicates cAMP increase. This assay is genetically encoded and packaged in BacMam for efficient transduction in most cell types - including uniform and near 100% efficiency in HEK293 cells as well as expression in many primary or iPSC-derived cells. The kit includes the cAMP sensor BacMam, 500mM sodium butyrate in H2O, and a positive control receptor and agonist (B2AR BacMam and 10mM isoproterenol in HCl). 30mL and 60mL sizes are available as well. Other Montana Molecular tools including BacMam-packaged GPCRs or bPAC can easily be co-expressed with this assay.
