cADDis: Live Cell cAMP Assay
A robust and versatile cAMP assay kit:
cADDis is a genetically-encoded fluorescent cAMP assay that detects changes in cAMP in real time.
• Screen Gs or Gi-coupled GPCRs in living cells
• Viral vector delivery to practically any cell type
• Target to microdomains or specific cells in mixed cultures
cADDis cAMP assay performance:
Off the shelf kits include the cAMP sensor in BacMam, a BSL-1 viral vector for efficiently deliver to most cell types. Purified BacMam, AAV, Lenti vectors by request.
• Easily detectable on plate readers or imaging systems.
• Controllable expression in BacMam vector.
• High signal to noise ratio
Simple protocol:
Provided online is a simple cAMP assay protocol, with no need for co-factors, cell lysis, or complex liquid handling.
• Text and video protocol online
• No lysis or complex liquid handling
• Single channel, non-FRET signal
