PathSpecific™ Cathepsin S Activity Assay Kit, Fluorometric (CAT#: ZL-1122-WR21)
| Overview | |
|---|---|
| Description | The kit is used to quantify the activity of cathepsin S in cell lysates and tissue extracts. |
| Features | Ready-used for enzyme activity assay. |
| Applications | Kit is used to study the Cathepsin S protease in biological samples. |
| Application Notes | The kit is a fluorescence-based assay that uses the preferred cathepsin-S substrate sequence VVR labeled with AFC (amino-4-trifluoromethyl coumarin) |
| Molecular Mechanism of Action | Cell lysates or other samples containing cathepsin S will hydrolyze the synthetic substrate VVR-AFC, releasing the fluorochrome AFC. The emitted fluorescence can be easily measured using a fluorometer or a fluorescence plate reader. |
| Assay Measures | Fluorogenic-based detection |
| Research Areas | Kinase Drug Discovery; Signal Pathway; |
