Assay TypeCompetition-TR-FRETReactivityHumanRegulatory StatusRUOAssay Time1 hrSample volume10 μLProduct Overview
The Human IL-6 / IL-6 R alpha Inhibitor Screening Kit (TR-FRET) is based on a homogeneous (no wash) competition TR-FRET technology (Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) to screen for inhibitors of human IL-6 binding to IL-6 R alpha within one hour. It can also be used as a universal detection tool to identify the ability of human IL-6 to bind to human IL-6 R alpha.

This Human IL-6 / IL-6 R alpha Inhibitor Screening Kit (TR-FRET) is based on TR-FRET technology (Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer). This assay uses the mixture of biotinylated human IL-6 and Europium-chelate labeled streptavidin as the Donor and FA Labeled Human IL-6 R alpha as the Acceptor.
— When the sample does not contain the inhibitors that block the binding of human IL-6 to human IL-6 R alpha, the Donor and Acceptor are in close proximity because of the binding of human IL-6 and human IL-6 R alpha. Upon Donor excitation with light of a specific wavelength (337nm), in addition to Donor emission (620nm), non-radiative transfer of energy occurs between Donor and Acceptor, resulting in Acceptor emission (665nm).
— When the sample contains the inhibitors that block the binding of human IL-6 to human IL-6 R alpha, the components inhibit the binding between the Donor and Acceptor and thereby prevent FRET from occurring.

Please refer to DS document for the assay protocol.

In this TR-FRET assay, Human IL-6 Protein Europium-chelate is used as the Donor and FA Labeled Human IL-6 R alpha is used as the Acceptor. An inhibition Assay was performed to evaluate the interaction between human IL-6 and human IL-6 R alpha using Anti- IL-6 Neutralizing Antibody resulting in a typical IC50 of 0.4213 nM (QC tested).

The kit is suitable for the detection and characterization of IL-6 / IL-6 R alpha inhibitors. It was shown that the two anti-IL-6 antibodies (FRTP023-C03 & Siltuximab) disrupted the interaction, with an IC50 of 0.4261 & 0.4943 nM. The anti-IL-6 R antibody (Tocilizumab) disrupted the interaction, with an IC50 of 3.348 nM. The anti-TNF-alpha (Adalimumab) showed no significant inhibitory effect in the assay as expected.
