Description
CoraFluor(TM) 1 is a high performance terbium-based TR-FRET (Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) or TRF (Time-Resolved Fluorescence) donor for high throughput assay development. CoraFluor(IM) 1 absorbs UV light at approximately 340 nm, and emits at approximately 490 nm, 545 nm, 585 nm and 620 nm. It is compatible with common acceptor dyes that absorb at the emission wavelengths of CoraFluor(TM) 1. CoraFluor(TM) 1 can be used for the development of robust and scalable TR-FRET binding assays such as target engagement, ternary complex, protein-protein interaction and protein quantification assays.

Background: BCMA/TNFRSF17
BCMA has two agonistic ligands: BAFF and a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL) (1,2). APRIL has higher affinity for BCMA than BAFF and the binding is mediated by CD138/syndeclin-1 (2,3). Activation of BCMA promotes the growth and survival of plasma cells, or MM cells in disease, through several signaling pathways such as NFkappaB, MEK/ERK, AKT, JNK, and p38 (1,2). In MM cells the BCMA activation and downstream signaling cascade functions to upregulate antiapoptotic proteins including Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, and Mcl-1 and protect the cells against therapeutic agents like dexamethasone (2,3).
Given its specific expression on plasma cells but not memory B cells, naive B cells, or hematopoietic stem cells, BCMA has garnered much interest as a therapeutic target for the treatment of MM (1-4). Current BCMA-targeted immunotherapy strategies include antibody-drug conjugates (ADC), chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells, bispecific T cell engager (BiTE), and bispecific/trispecific antibodies (1-4). CAR T cell therapy in particular has demonstrated promising clinical results (2,4). Still, more research needs to be done to improve the efficacy and risk of relapse following CAR T cell therapy and may also include targeting additional antigens in combination with BCMA or utilizing pharmacological agents to increase antigen density (4).
