Related Product Information for PLTP Activity II assay kit
Background/Introduction: Phosphodiesterase (PDE) is a family of enzymes that cleave a phosphodiester bond. These include cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases, phospholipase C and D, RNases, DNases and some restriction endonucleases. Phosphodiesterases are important enzymes used for a variety of biological functions including metabolism of second messenger molecules like cAMP / cGMP (therefore, regulation of their intracellular levels). PDE activity is responsible for degradation of mRNA after it had been translated to protein and of DNA during apoptosis. Some PDE isoforms such as PDE 5 and PDE 11 are therapeutic targets because of their role in the cardiovascular system and tumor formation respectively. BioVision's PDE assay kit is a fluorometric plate-based assay for kinetic measurement of total phosphodiesterase activity. It is based on the cleavage of a coumarin based synthetic substrate by phosphodiesterases to generate a product, which fluoresces at Ex/Em= 370/450 nm. It does not rely on the quantification of phosphate released by phosphodiesterase action, like other traditional methods currently in use. Therefore, sample background is negligible, and does not interfere with the assay. The substrate is specific for phosphodiesterases and is not cleaved by enzymes that act on carboxyl esters or by phosphatases. This assay can detect as low as 0.25 uU of total PDE.

Product Notes

The PLTP Activity II (Catalog #AAA841605) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. Measurement of PLTP activity in animal serum, plasma and recombinant protein. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PLTP Activity II for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "PLTP Activity II, 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.
