The EpiQuik™ General Protein-DNA Binding AssayKit (Fluorometric) (96
assays)is a convenient package of tools that allows the
experimenter to investigate protein-DNA interaction in vitro
efficiently. The entire procedure can be completed within 3 hours
and produces far superior results than any competitor kits. The
EpiQuik™ General Protein-DNA Binding Assay Kits are suitable for
analyzing protein-DNA interactions in vitro, specifically for
detecting transcription factor activation using mammalian tissue
and cell extracts.
WHY CHOOSE THE EPIQUIK™ GENERAL PROTEIN-DNA
BINDING ASSAY KIT (FLUOROMETRIC)(96 ASSAYS)?
The fastest procedure available: a complete assay
can be finished within 3 hours.
Strip microplate format makes the
assay flexible: manual or high throughput analysis.
Fluorometrically qualify or quantify protein
activation and use radioactive-free materials: safer to
handle.
No requirement for coating antibodies, or for
using secondary antibodies, or for labeling oligo-nucleotides: save
time and reduce labor.
Simple, reliable, and consistent assay
conditions.
Principle &
Procedure
The EpiQuik™ General Protein-DNA Binding Assay Kit (Fluorometric)
is designed for measuring the
transcription factor (TF) of DNA binding activity in nuclear
extracts. In an assay with the use of this kit, target TF in
nuclear extract is captured by high affinity antibody onto assay
microwell. A double strand oligonucleotide (oligo) containing DNA
binding consensus sequence for the target TF is added into the
microwell and bound to active TF in the binding assay buffer. The
bound oligo is then fluorometrically detected.
