Assay Report Card

ID: ALA3887212

Type: Binding

Description: Enzyme Assay: Enzymatic reactions are carried out in a reaction containing 50 mM NaH2PO4, 100 mM NaCl and 0.1% BSA (pH 7.0) using 2 mM 4-Methylumbelliferyl N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminide dihydrate (Sigma M2133) dissolved in ddH2O, as a substrate. The amount of purified human O-GlcNAcase enzyme used in the reaction is 0.7 nM. Test compound of varying concentrations is added to the enzyme prior to initiation of the reaction. The reaction is performed at room temperature in a 96-well plate and is initiated with the addition of substrate. The production of fluorescent product is measured every 60 sec for 45 min with a Tecan Infinite M200 plate-reader with excitation at 355 nM and emission detected at 460 nM, with 4-Methylumbelliferone (Sigma M1381) used to produce a standard curve.

Organism: Homo sapiens
