Accessory reagent kit for the analysis of histone methyltransferase activity.

This assay is a simple two-step procedure performed in a microtiter plate. In the first step samples are incubated with the HDAC assay substrate, allowing deacetylation of the fluorometric substrate. Next, Activator Solution releases a fluorophore from the deacetylated substrate or standard.

This kit is designed to measure the phosphotransferase activity in a kinase cascade reaction initiated by activated Raf-1. Recombinant unactive MEK1 is the substrate for Raf-1. Once activated by Raf-1, MEK1 can phosphorylate and thereby activate another kit component, recombinant unactive MAP Kinase 2/Erk2. Activation of MAP Kinase 2/Erk2 is determined by phosphorylation of myelin basic protein (MBP), in vitro. Phosphorylation…

The assay kit is designed to measure B-Raf dependent phosphotransferase activity in a kinase cascade reaction using recombinant MEK1, unactive as a B-Raf substrate. Recombinant MAPK2/Erk2, unactive is phosphorylated and activated by the activated MEK1 leading to phosphorylation of a MAP Kinase substrate, myelin basic protein (MBP). [γ-32P]ATP is the final phosphate donor.

Intended for the assay of recombinant B-Raf (supplied) kinase activity with experimental variables as determined by the user. For assay of B-Raf activity from a cell lysate, we recommend an immunoprecipitation-kinase assay, using anti-B-Raf antibody (07-453).

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP) is an important technique allowing the researcher to analyze in vivo interactions of proteins with genomic DNA. Any chromatin-associated or DNA binding protein can be analyzed with this technique, provided a good antibody to the protein exists. One can measure different proteins localized to a specific region of the genome, or the genome wide distribution of a specific protein. Another powe…

The 384 well format kit is a newer version of the tried and true non-radiographic HDAC assay. As in the previous kit, samples are first incubated with the HDAC Assay substrate, allowing deacetylation of the fluorometric substrate. After incubation, the activator solution is added, and releases a fluorophore from the deacetylated substrate or standard. The sample is then put into a microplate reader and fluorescence (i.e free/c…

This assay is a simple two-step procedure performed in a microtiter plate. In the first step, samples are incubated with the HDAC assay substrate, allowing deacetylation of the substrate. Next, the Activator Solution releases p-nitroanilide from the deacetylated substrate or standard.

The EZ-Zyme™ Chromatin Prep kit allows ChIP analysis at nucleosome resolution by performing complete or partial digestions with a proprietary enzymatic cocktail to obtain chromatin fragments of on average one to a few nucleosomes in length. Compared to sonication, this procedure not only allows mapping the protein-DNA association at a higher resolution, but also renders the subsequent immunoprecipitation more efficient due to…
