Green HDAC fluorometric activity assay Kit

• Cat.No.: Kit-0420

Specification

• Size: 96 wells
• Description: An improved FLUOR DE LYS HDAC assay with FLUOR DE LYS-Green, a new substrate offering higher sensitivity and an excitation and emission (485/530nm) that avoids quenching and fluorescent interference from compounds absorbing in the near UV and blue range.The FLUOR DE LYS-Green HDAC assay is a complete kit for measuring histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity in cell or nuclear extracts, immunoprecipitates or purified enzymes. It comes in a convenient 96-well format, with all reagents necessary for fluorescent HDAC or sirtuin activity measurements and calibration of the assay. The FLUOR DE LYS-Green HDAC assay is based on the FLUOR DE LYS-Green substrate and FLUOR DE LYS developer combination. The FLUOR DE LYS system (Fluorogenic Histone deAcetylase Lysyl Substrate/Developer) is a highly sensitive and convenient alternative to radiolabeled, acetylated histones or peptide/HPLC methods for the assay of histone deacetylases. The assay procedure has two steps. First, the FLUOR DE LYS-Green substrate, which comprises an acetylated lysine side chain, is incubated with a sample containing HDAC activity (HeLa nuclear or other extract, purified enzyme, bead-bound immunocomplex, etc.). Deacetylation of the substrate sensitizes the substrate so that, in the second step, treatment with the FLUOR DE LYS developer produces a fluorophore.
