  • Method of screening binding of a compound to a receptor
    Patent number: 7081346
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of measuring affinity of a test compound for a receptor protein. The method includes the steps of providing a receptor-ligand complex comprising a receptor and a quinoxaline derivative ligand bound thereto; then contacting the receptor-ligand complex with a test compound, thereby yielding a receptor-test compound complex and an amount of free quinoxaline derivative; and then measuring the amount of the free quinoxaline derivative generated as a result of the previous step. In this fashion, the affinity of the test compound for the receptor can be determined.
