Product Overview :
EHMT1 (GLP) is a histone methyltransferase that exhibits methylation activity toward H3-K9.
Description :
The EHMT1 (GLP) Direct Activity Chemiluminescent Assay Kit is designed to measure EHMT1, also known as G9a-like protein or GLP activity for screening and profiling applications. The key to the EHMT1 (GLP) Chemiluminescent Assay Kit is a highly specific antibody that recognizes methylated K9 residue of H3. With this kit, only three simple steps on a microtiter plate are required for methyltransferase detection. First, S-adenosylmethionine is incubated with a sample containing assay buffer and methyltransferase enzyme for one hour. Next, primaryantibody is added. Finally, the plate is treated with an HRP-labeled secondary antibody followed by addition of the HRP substrate to produce chemiluminescence that can then be measured using a chemiluminescence reader.
Applications :
Great for studying enzyme kinetics and screening small molecular inhibitors for drug discovery and HTS applications.
Storage :
12 months from date of receipt, when stored as directed. Kit components require different storage conditions. Be sure to store each component at the proper temperature upon arrival.
