TACE Inhibitor Screening Kit

• Cat.No.: Kit-0810
• Product Overview: In TACE inhibitor screening Kit, TACE (tumor necrosis factor-α-converting enzyme) hydrolyzes the specific FRET substrate to release the quenched fluorescent group, which can be detected fluorometrically at Ex/Em318/449 nm. In the presence of the potent TACE inhibitor, the hydrolyzation of substrate will be impeded. The kit provides a rapid, simple, sensitive and reliable test suitable for high-throughput screening of TACE inhibitors and can be modified to check the relative TACE activity. Inhibitor Control GM6001 is included to compare the efficacy of test inhibitors.

Specification

• Size: 100 tests
• Description: The TACE (tumor necrosis factor-α-converting enzyme), also called ADAM metallopeptidase domain 17 (ADAM17), is a 70-kDa enzyme that belongs to the ADAM protein family of disintegrins and metalloproteases. TACE is believed to be involved in the processing of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) at the surface of the cell, and from within the intracellular membranes of the trans-Golgi network. This process, which is also known as shedding, involves the cleavage and release of a soluble ectodomain from membrane-bound pro-proteins (such as pro-TNF-α), and is of known physiological importance.
