Fluorescence polarization (FP) has become widely employed for high throughput screening used in pharmaceutical drug discovery. Assays of important signal transduction targets are now adapted to FP. In this review we examine assays for cyclic adenosine monophosphate, phosphodiesterases, and protein kinases and phosphatases using FP competitive immunoassays and a direct enzymatic method called IMAP.

cAMP is a universal secondary messenger that connects changes in the extracellular environment, as detected by cell surface receptors, to transcriptional changes in the nucleus. Since cAMP-mediated signal transduction plays a role in critical cell functions and human diseases, monitoring its activity can aid in understanding these responses and the process of drug discovery. This report examines the performance of a fluorescence-based competitive immunoassay in 384-well microplate format.
