Proteasome Activity Fluorometric Assay Kit I

Proteasome Activity Fluorometric Assay Kit I was designed for assaying the constitutive proteasomes' chymotrypsin-like activity in vitro using purified proteasome, cell lysates or tissue extracts. The proteasome cleaves Suc-LLVY-AMC, and the released AMC fluorescence can be monitored using a plate reader or fluorometer at the excitation/emission wavelength of 360nm/460nm, respectively.


The supplied Suc-LLVY-AMC is sufficient for 250 X 100 µl reactions.

Description

Proteasome Activity Fluorometric Assay Kit I is designed for assaying the proteasome’s chymotrypsin-like activity in vitro using purified proteasome, cleared cell lysates or tissue extracts. The proteasome cleaves Suc-LLVY-AMC and the released AMC fluorescence can be monitored using a plate reader or fluorometer at the excitation/emission wavelength of 360nm/460nm, respectively. The amount of the cell lysates or tissue extracts to be used in the reaction should be optimized.

AMC is used to produce a standard curve using a concentration range of 10-100 pmol.
