hit-to-lead discovery
UbiQ can assist your lead discovery and high-throughput screening campaigns in the Ubiquitin Proteasome System with our wide range of activity assay reagents.
Our DUB activity assay reagents proved effective in multiple industrial scale high-throughput screening campaigns. They are available in different assay read-outs (e.g. fluorogenic, fluorescence polarization or bioluminiscence) and complexity (e.g. our class II fluorescence polarization reagents).
applications
- high-throughput screening
- activity assays
targets
- DUBs and Ubl proteases
experience
- substrate supply for an undisclosed number of large library screens by our industrial partners
- custom development of more than 10 highly specialised context specific assay reagents
- demonstrated performance at independent European screening centers – Pivot Park Screening Center and European ScreeningPort (table 1)
- five DUB screening campaigns (>1.7 million small molecules)
