SH2MAX Assay Panel

SH2MAX Assay Panel for Evaluating Therapies Targeting Protein-Protein Interactions (PPIs) and Phosphotyrosine Signaling

SH2MAX Assay Panel offers a comprehensive screening solution to test for selectivity of molecules across 102 SH2 domain-containing proteins during all stages of drug discovery and development, from lead discovery & hit identification to lead optimization. SH2MAX is the largest human binding assay panel available on a single technology platform with no potential of compound interference in the assay readout.
 
SH2 domains play a central role in mediating protein-protein interactions by recognizing and binding phosphotyrosine residues on target proteins involved in the regulation and organization of cell signaling and macromolecular complex assembly in the cell. Overexpression or mutation of proteins that contain SH2 domains can lead to dysregulation of pathways involved in inflammation, autoimmunity and oncogenesis. The SH2MAX panel enables compound testing across a broad variety of wild-type and mutant SH2 domains in a single assay, which can be utilized in evaluating on-target and off-target effects and toxicity of molecules in any stage of the drug discovery process.

Key Areas

Evaluate SH2 domain mediated protein-protein interactions (PPIs) and phosphotyrosine-based signaling using LeadHunter Src Homology 2 (SH2) domain binding assays, SH2scan, targeting kinases, Signal Transducer and Activation of Transcription (STAT) and more, to support drug discovery research for diverse disease indications including cancer, inflammation, and autoimmune diseases.

Eurofins Discovery has developed a panel of novel LeadHunter Src Homology 2 (SH2) domain binding assays targeting Signal Transducer and Activation of Transcription (STAT) proteins (STAT1, STAT2, STAT3, STAT4, STAT5A, STAT5B and STAT6) used in drug discovery therapeutics research for cancer, inflammation and autoimmune diseases.

The KINOMEscan screening platform employs a novel and proprietary active site-directed competition binding assay to quantitatively measure interactions between test molecules and 480+ kinase assays covering wild-type and disease-relevant mutations.

The largest commercial kinase panel available, scanMAX contains a set of 468 kinases covering AGC, CAMK, CMGC, CK1, STE, TK, TKL, lipid and atypical kinase families, plus important mutant forms.
