Lysyl oxidase(LOX)
Amplite™ Fluorimetric Lysyl Oxidase Assay Kit *Red Fluorescence*
Lysyl oxidase(LOX) is an extracellular enzyme that catalyzes formation of aldehydes from lysine residues in collagen and elastin precursors. These aldehydes are highly reactive, and undergo spontaneous chemical reactions with other lysyl oxidase-derived aldehyde residues, or with unmodified lysine residues.
This results in cross-linking collagen and elastin which is essential for stabilization of collagen fibrils and for the integrity and elasticity of mature elastin. Lysyl oxidase has been identified as a possible tumor suppressor. Lysyl oxidase activity in biological samples is traditionally and most reliably assessed by tritium release end-point assays using radiolabeled collagen or elastin substrates involving laborious vacuum distillation of the released tritiated water.
This kit offers a sensitive fluorescent assay for lysyl oxidase activity that utilizes 1,5-diaminopentane as substrate, and released hydrogen peroxide is detected using our Amplite™ HRP substrate in HRP-coupled reactions. This method allows the detection of sub ng/mL lysyl oxidase and is much more sensitive than the currently available fluorimetric assay for this enzyme activity. This method eliminates the interference that occurs in some biological samples and can be readily used to detect lysyl oxidase activity in cell culture experiments.
Key Features
Sensitive : The kit detect as low as 40 ng lysyl oxidase in solution.
Continuous : Easily adapted to automation with no separation required.
Convenient : Formulated to have minimal hands-on time. No wash is required.
Non-Radioactive : No special requirements for waste treatment.
Kit Components
Component A : Amplite™ HRP substrate (light sensitive) 1 vial
Component B : Assay Buffer 1 bottle (50 mL)
Component C : Horseradish Peroxidase 1 vial (50 units)
Component D : DMSO 1 vial (200 μL)
