Phospho-mTor (Ser2448) assay principle

The Phospho-mTor (Ser2448) assay measures mTor when phosphorylated at Ser2448. Contrary to Western Blot, the assay is entirely plate-based and does not require gels, electrophoresis or transfer. The Phospho-mTor (Ser2448) assay uses 2 labeled antibodies: one with a donor fluorophore, the other one with an acceptor. The first antibody is selected for its specific binding to the phosphorylated motif on the protein, the second for its ability to recognize the protein independent of its phosphorylation state. Protein phosphorylation enables an immune-complex formation involving both labeled antibodies and which brings the donor fluorophore into close proximity to the acceptor, thereby generating a FRET signal. Its intensity is directly proportional to the concentration of phosphorylated protein present in the sample, and provides a means of assessing the protein’s phosphorylation state under a no-wash assay format.

Phospho-mTor (Ser2448) 2-plate assay protocol

The 2 plate protocol involves culturing cells in a 96-well plate before lysis then transferring lysates to a 384-well low volume detection plate before adding phospho-mTor (Ser2448) HTRF detection reagents. This protocol enables the cells' viability and confluence to be monitored.

Phospho-mTor (Ser2448) 1-plate assay protocol

Detection of Phosphorylated mTor (Ser2448) with HTRF reagents can be performed in a single plate used for culturing, stimulation and lysis. No washing steps are required. This HTS designed protocol enables miniaturization while maintaining robust HTRF quality.

HTRF assay compared to WB using phospho-mTOR cellular assay

Hek293 cells were grown in a T175 flask 37°C, 5% Co2, 2 days.After elimination of cell culture medium, 3 mL of supplemented lysis buffer were added and incubated for 30 min.Soluble supernatants were collected after 10 min centrifuging. Equal amounts of lysates were used for a side by side comparison of WB and HTRF. HTRF assay shows the same level of sensitivity as Western Blot: 1560 cells for the two technologies.

Insulin dose-response on NIH 3T3 cells

Murine NIH 3T3 cells (100,000 cells/well) were stimulated for 30 minutess at 37°C with various concentrations of forskolin. After a 30 minutes lysis incubation time, phosphorylated mTOR was measured using the two-plate assay protocol.

Inhibition effect of Rapamycin on basal level of Jurkat cells

Jurkat cells (100,000 cells/well) were incubated for 30 min at 37°C with various concentrations of inhibitor. After a 30 minutes lysis incubation time, inhibition of the basal level of phosphorylated mTOR was measured using the one-plate assay protocol.

Simplified Pathway for Phospho-mTor (Ser2448) assay kit

The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a Ser/Thr protein kinase that functions as an ATP and amino acid sensor and plays a key role in cell growth and homeostasis. As mTOR may be abnormally regulated in tumors, it is currrently under investigation as a potential target for anti-cancer therapy. mTOR is itself phosphorylated at Ser2448 via the PI3 kinase/Akt signaling pathway, and autophosphorylated at Ser2481.
