Abstract: The present invention provides novel chimeric receptors and methods of screening using the chimeric receptors. The chimeric receptors comprise an extracellular domain of a tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily (TNFRSF) receptor and an intracellular domain with kinase activity stemming from a receptor tyrosine kinase. According to an embodiment, the chimeric receptor comprises a full-length TNFRSF receptor. The present invention provides means for screening and testing of modulators of TNFRSF receptors.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel chimeric receptors and methods of screening using the chimeric receptors. The chimeric receptors comprise an extracellular domain of a type 1 single pass transmembrane receptor (T1SPTR) and an intracellular domain with kinase activity stemming from a receptor tyrosine kinase. According to an embodiment, the chimeric receptor comprises a full-length T1SPTR. According to another embodiment the chimeric receptor comprises a full-length or truncated tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) or interleukin receptors, or cytokine receptors, or transforming growth factor receptors. The present invention provides means for screening of modulators of TNFRs or interleukin receptors, or cytokine receptors, or transforming growth factor receptors.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of high-throughput screening (HTS) of active agents of a cell-surface G-Protein coupled receptor (GPCR) or another target receptor of interest. The method uses a non-invasive, sensitive reporting system that is proximal to the target of interest, combined with a dynamic, automated screening procedure so as to detect orthosteric ligands, such as agonists and antagonists, but is also suitable to detect allosteric or low affinity active agents of a GPCR and possibly other disease-related receptors.
