Description
PDE1C TR-FRET Assay Kit | 60705 | Gentaur US, UK & Europe Disrtribition
Category: Phosphodiesterase/Assay Kit
Application: Great for studying enzyme kinetics and screening small molecular inhibitors for drug discovery and HTS applications.
Background: Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) play an important role in dynamic regulation of cAMP and cGMP signaling. PDE1C is a calmodulin-dependent PDE that is expressed principally in human myocardium. The assay is based on the generation of FAM-labeled nucleotide monophosphates by the phosphodiesterase. These phosphate groups bind to terbium-labeled nanoparticles, resulting in energy transfer from the terbium to the FAM, which emits a fluorescent signal at 520 nm. The change in fluorescent intensity can be easily measured using a fluorescence plate reader.
Description: The PDE1C TR-FRET Assay Kit is designed for identification of inhibitors of PDE1C using TR-FRET (Time Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) technology. Using this kit, only two simple steps on a microtiter plate are required for the PDE1C activity assay. First, the fluorescent-labeled cAMP is incubated with a sample containing PDE1C for 1 hour. Second, a binding agent and a terbium donor are added to the reaction mix and incubated for 30 minutes. Then, fluorescence intensity can be measured using a fluorescence reader.
