LSD1 is a chromatin-modifying enzyme that specifically removes methyl groups from mono- and dimethylated Lys of histone H3. LSD1 is a critical component of transcriptional regulation via epigenetic histone modifications and is therefore a potential target for drug development.Intended Use:The LSD1 Chemiluminescent BioAssay Kit is designed to directly measure activity of human lysine-specific demethylase (LSD1) for screening and profiling applications. Test Principle:The key to the LSD1 Chemiluminescent BioAssay Kit is a highly specific antibody that recognizes demethylated substrate. With this kit, only three simple steps on a microtiter plate are required for methyltransferase detection. First, a sample containing LSD1 enzyme is incubated with a sample containing assay buffer. Next, primary antibody is added. Finally, the plate is treated with an HRP-labeled secondary antibody followed by addition of the HRP substrate to produce chemiluminescence that can then be measured using a chemiluminescence reader.Contraindications:DMSO >1%, strong acids or bases, ionic detergents, high saltApplications:Great for studying enzyme kinetics and HTS applications.Kit Components:Microplate precoated with histone substrate, 1x plateLSD1, 1x10ug Primary antibody 10, 1x12.5ul Secondary HRP-labeled antibody 1, 1x10ul 3x LSD1 assay buffer 2, 1x3ml Blocking buffer, 1x50ml HRP chemiluminescent substrate A, (transparent bottle), 1x6ml HRP chemiluminescent substrate B, (brown bottle), 1x6ml Storage and Stability:Store powder at 4°C liquid at -20°C.
