Studying mechanisms of receptor-ligand interactions has remained challenging due to several limitations of different measurement methods. Here we present a total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy-based method that maintains the right balance between retaining the receptors in the natural lipid environment, sufficient throughput for ligand screening, high sensitivity, and offering more detailed view into the ligand-binding process. The novel method combines G protein-coupled receptor display in budded baculovirus particles and the immobilization of the particles to a functionalized coverslip. We adapted and validated the functionalized coverslip preparation process to achieve selective immobilization of budded baculovirus particles. The selectivity of budded baculovirus immobilization was validated with budded baculovirus particles displaying either Frizzled 6 receptors labeled with mCherry or neuropeptide Y Y1 receptors. To scale the system for ligand binding assays, we developed both open-source multiwell systems and image analysis software SPOTNIC for flexible assay design. The neuropeptide Y Y1 receptor was used for further receptor-ligand binding studies with high-affinity TAMRA labeled fluorescent ligand UR-MC026. The affinities of the fluorescent ligand and four unlabeled ligands (BIBO3304, UR-MK299, PYY, pNPY) were obtained with the developed method and followed a similar trend with both the parallel measurements with fluorescence anisotropy method and the data published earlier. The novel method could be extended for various advanced assays utilizing multidimensional detection modes, integrating super-resolution methods for single molecule detection and microfluidic devices for kinetic measurements.
