HDAC6 Fluorogenic Assay Kit

The Fluorogenic HDAC6 Assay Kit is a complete assay system designed to measure histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) activity for screening and profiling applications. In addition, the kit includes purified HDAC6 enzyme and a potent HDAC inhibitor, Trichostatin A, for use as a positive and negative control. The Fluorogenic HDAC6 Assay Kit is based on a unique fluorogenic substrate and developer combination. This assay method eliminates dealing with the radioactivity, extraction, and chromatography aspects of traditional assays. Using this kit, only two simple steps on a microtiter plate are needed to analyze the HDAC activity level. First, the HDAC fluorometric substrate, containing an acetylated lysine side chain, is incubated with purified HDAC enzyme. The deacetylation sensitizes the substrate so subsequent treatment with the Lysine Developer produces a fluorophore that can then be measured using a fluorescence reader.Need us to run inhibitor screens or profile your compounds against HDAC6?
