Focus on Actin - G-F Actin ratio measured in cells
In previous posts,  I invited you to look at versatile methods to
- Visualize actin: Focus on Actin staining and visualization
- Measure actin binding: Focus on Actin – Detection of actin binding and
2 assays to assess GEF and GAP activity
In my previous post Small GTPases: Measuring small G protein activation I looked at state-of the-art methods for measuring the activation of small G proteins, such as RhoA, Rac1, Cdc42, and the proto-oncogen
Versatile measurement of protein binding to microtubules
You suspect your protein binds to microtubules? That it might stabilize or destabilize these filamentous structures? Then this post is here to help you to find a meaningful assay to validate your assumption.
Tubulin polymerisation measurement - made easy!
Recently, I issued a post about a method which allows measuring microtuble binding capabilities of proteins of interest. Today, I invite you to look at methods for
Tubulin:Microtubule ratio measured in cells
A focus on ATX-LPA signaling research tools
Autotaxin (ATX) is a secreted lysophospholipase D involved in the release of the lipid mediator LPA. Many research tools have been developed to study ATX-LPA signaling.  In this post, I invite you
3 functional assays to investigate actin dynamics
Today, I'd like to give you an overview about methods in actin research with validated R&DÂ products and kits which will allow you to measure binding to actin and effects on the polymerisation dynamics
Cell signalling: How to easily detect mono- and poly-Ub target proteins
How to make Post Translational Modification characterization easier
Signal-Seeker assays (Cytoskeleton Inc.) provide researchers with the most comprehensive reagents enabling highly sensitive and specific detection of the key Post Translational Modifications (PTMs)
Therapeutic Target - Ubiquitin-Proteasome system: What about tubulin?
The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is a well-characterized protein degradation system in cells whose dysfunction is implicated in many diseases, including neurodegeneration and cancer1,2. Major UPS
Where to find a sensitive Hyaluronic Acid (HA) quantitative assay
Hyaluronic acid (also called HA or Hyaluronan) is a glycosaminoglycan with elevated viscosity, enabling tissues (eye, skin, joint and synovial fluid...) to resist to physical and mechanical constraints
