Description :
The PARP2 Colorimetric Activity Assay Kit is designed to measure PARP2 activity for screening and profiling applications. PARP2 is known to catalyze the NAD-dependent addition of poly(ADP-ribose) to histones. The key to the PARP2 Colorimetric Activity Assay is the biotinylated substrate. With this kit, only three simple steps are required for PARP2 reactions. First, histone proteins are coated on a 96-well plate. Next, the PARP2 biotinylated substrate is incubated with an assay buffer that contains the PARP2 enzyme. Finally, the plate is treated with streptavidin-HRP followed by addition of the colorimetric HRP substrate to produce color that can then be measured using a UV/Vis spectrophotometer microplate reader.
Applications :
Great for studying enzyme kinetics and screening small molecular inhibitors for drug discovery and HTS applications.
Storage :
Stable at least 6 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.
