Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Gal4 LXRbeta Cotransfection Assay
Description:  For transient transfection of HEK 293 cells, 6×103 cells are plated into 96-well dishes. Each well is transfected with 25 ng 5×UAS-luciferase reporter (pG5luc) and 25 ng of pM human LXRβ (AA 153-461) LBD plasmid using Fugene 6 reagent (Roche; Indianapolis, Ind.). The chimeric protein is assessed for the ability to transactivate a Gal4-responsive luciferase reporter plasmid in a concentration-responsive manner to compounds (0.01-10 μM). Luciferase activity at each dose concentration is measured in triplicate using standard substrate reagents (BD Biosciences; San Diego, Calif.).
