Abstract

The invention relates to a method for determining whether a test compound binds preferentially to a membrane receptor R1 or to a membrane receptor R2, these receptors being known to be expressed on the surface of the cells in monomeric, homodimeric or heterodimeric form. This method is applied using one or two FRET partner pairs.
