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: MEK5

Mitogen-acitvated protein kinase kinase 5 (MKK5) belongs to the serine/threonine protein kinase family and the MAPK kinase subfamily (MAP2K, MKK or MEKs). MAPKs require dual phosphorylation on threonine and tyrosine residues, an activation step carried out by MAPK kinase (1-2). The MAPK cascade plays an important role in signaling defense responses. Of the MKK family members, MKK5 exhibits the closest homology to MEK1 and MEK2, with 46% amino acid identity in the catalytic domain (3) MKK has been show to activate extracellular-signal-regulated protein kinase 5 (ERK5). Also, activated ERK5 phosphorylates mitogen- MKK5 extensively at Ser129, Ser137, Ser142 and Ser149, which are located within the region in MKK5 that is thought to interact with ERK5 (3). There have also been findings to that the MEK5 (MKK5)/ERK5 (BMK) pathway may play a role in prostate cancer (5).
