assuming your protein has a Y or a W...before buying a dye or trying an elisa, 
it would be cheapest and easiest to check for Trp or Tyr fluorescence changes 
upon adding the inhibitor. If the structure or a structural homolog is known of 
one of the proteins and you know the interface, a simple PCR rxn to generate a 
W mutant would be easy too. Dye detection methods  can be problematic at times, 
and elisa's have there own problems...
