Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Fluorescence Polarization Assay
Description:  The androgen receptor fluorescence polarization assay is used to investigate the interaction of the compounds with the androgen receptor.Compounds are added to the 384 well black low-volume plates to a final volume of 0.1 μL. DTT and DMSO are added to the chilled assay buffer just before beginning assay. Sufficient Fluormone AL Red and AR-LBD are defrosted on ice and added to the chilled buffer in a glass tube to give a final concentration of 1 nM and 100 nM, (for current batch) respectively. A volume of 10 μL of the assay mix is added to compound plates with a multidrop. The assay is allowed to incubate at 20° C. for 2-3 hours. The plates are counted in a Discovery Analyst with suitable 535 nM excitation and 590 nM emission interference filters (Dichroic 561 nM). Compounds that interact with the AR result in a lower fluorescence polarization reading. Test compounds are dissolved and diluted in DMSO.
