LOX Fluorometric Assay Kit

• Cat.No.: Kit-0520
• Product Overview: LOX Assay Kit (Fluorometric) is designed for the measurement of LOX.

Specification

• Description: Lysyl oxidase is an extracellular enzyme that catalyzes formation of aldehydes from lysine residues in collagen and elastin precursors. These aldehydes are highly reactive, and undergo spontaneous chemical reactions with other lysyl oxidase-derived aldehyde residues or with unmodified lysine residues. The chemical reactions result in cross-linking collagen and elastin, which is essential for stabilization of collagen fibrils and for the integrity and elasticity of mature elastin. The activity of Lysyl oxidase in biological samples is traditionally assessed by tritium release end-point assays using radio isotope labeled collagen or elastin substrates.
