Fast and convenient
Kit contains the necessary reagents for testing putative HDAC-8 inhibitors
Shelf Life: 12 months
Background: Histone deacetylases (HDACs) represent a large family of enzymes identified as key regulators of nucleosomal histone acetylation, a major event that controls eukaryotic gene transcription and are classified into three groups. They are believed to be involved in important biological activities, such as cell differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, and senescence. In MyBioSource's HDAC-8 Inhibitor screening Kit, HDAC-8 deacetylates the substrate (R-H-K(Ac)-K(Ac)-AFC) followed by an enzymatic cleavage to release the quenched fluorescent group (AFC), which can be detected at Em/Ex = 380/500 nm. In the presence of an HDAC-8 inhibitor, the deacetylation will be impeded which prevents the cleavage of the substrate to release AFC. The kit provides a rapid, simple, sensitive, and reliable test, which is also suitable for high throughput screening of HDAC-8 inhibitors. Trichostatin A is included as a control inhibitor to compare the efficacy of the test inhibitors.
Summary: Detection method- Fluorescence (Em/Ex = 380/500 nm)
Applications- Suitable for high throughput screening of HDAC-8 inhibitors

Product Notes
The HDAC8 (Catalog #AAA841575) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "HDAC8, Assay Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
