DESCRIPTION
Bright fluorescent assay to detect response and reversal of chemical or genetic ER stress response and UPR.
DETAILS
- Category: Cell Stress Assay
- Subcategory: ER stress
- Applications: Fluorescence plate readers or imaging systems
- Product Details: The cell stress sensor is a genetically-encoded fluorescent biosensor that produces very bright green fluorescence when the cell endures endoplasmic reticulum (ER-mediated) stress or undergoes the unfolded protein response (UPR). Importantly, green fluorescent signals are nuclear localized for simple cell segmentation and image analysis. This sensor is based on the XBP1 mRNA which is spliced by the IRE1 protein during ER stress [Iwawaki et al. 2003].
