Each HDAC Assay Kit contains positive control HeLa nuclear extract, deacetylated HDAC assay standard, HDAC peptide substrate, Trichostatin A as a model inhibitor and all the essential buffers for a full 96-well plate assay.
Assay advantages
- Works with Class I, IIB and IV HDAC enzymes (does not work with HDAC Class IIA)
- Easy to adapt to work with Class III HDAC enzymes
- Use nuclear extracts, immunoprecipitates, column fractions or purified proteins
- Calculate enzymatic activity and screen inhibitor compounds
Figure 1: Colorimetric HDAC Assay results.
HeLa nuclear extracts were assayed from 0 to 50 µg per well in duplicate. The purple line represents activity from untreated extracts, while the copper line represents extracts treated with 1 µM Trichostatin A inhibitor.
Figure 2: Fluorescent HDAC Assay results.
HeLa nuclear extracts were assayed from 0 to 10 µg per well in duplicate. The purple line represents activity from untreated extracts, while the copper line represents extracts treated with 1 µM Trichostatin A inhibitor.
