Development of a high-throughput assay to measure the neutralization capability of anti-cytomegalovirus antibodies.
Infection by human cytomegalovirus (CMV) elicits a strong humoral immune response and robust anti-CMV antibody production. Diagnosis of virus infection can be carried out by using a variety of serological assays; however, quantification of serum antibodies against CMV may not present an accurate measure of a patient's ability to control a virus infection. CMV strains that express green fluoresc...
متن کاملMicroarray TRAP--a high-throughput assay to quantitate telomerase activity.
Telomeric repeat amplification protocol (TRAP)--a sensitive, PCR-based assay to detect telomerase activity was quintessential to the evaluation of telomerase role in telomere maintenance, cell proliferation, tumour development, and cell immortalization. The assay, however, suffers from many limitations. The most significant are: lack of telomerase activity quantification, changes of the enzyme ...
متن کاملDevelopment of a homogenous high-throughput assay for inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 activity
Inositol pyrophosphates have been implicated in a wide range of cellular processes. Inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 catalyzes the pyrophosphorylation of inositol hexakisphosphate into inositol 5-diphospho-1,2,3,4,6-pentakisphosphate which is important in numerous areas of cell physiology such as DNA repair and glucose homeostasis. Furthermore, inositol 5-diphospho-1,2,3,4,6-pentakisphosphate...
متن کاملA Rapid Histidine Decarboxylase Assay1
Histidine decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.22) catalyzes the conversion of histidine to histamine. Because current assays for enzyme activity are time consuming and require additional enzymes or large amounts of tissue, a rapid radioisotopic assay was devised. Using commercially available radioactive histidine (without additional purification), the enzyme mediates the formation of histamine. The product...
متن کاملDevelopment of A Questionnaire to Measure Attitude toward Oocyte Donation
Background To our knowledge, there is no valid and comprehensive questionnaire that considers attitude toward oocyte donation (OD). Therefore this study has aimed to design and develop a tool entitled attitude toward donation-oocyte (ATOD-O) to measure attitude toward OD. MaterialsAndMethods This methodological, qualitative research was undertaken on 15 infertile cases. In addition, we performe...
