Scintillation proximity assay for measurement of RNA methylation
Methylation of RNA by methyltransferases is a phylogenetically ubiquitous post-transcriptional modification that occurs most extensively in transfer RNA (tRNA) and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). Biochemical characterization of RNA methyltransferase enzymes and their methylated product RNA or RNA-protein complexes is usually done by measuring the incorporation of radiolabeled methyl groups into the produ...
متن کاملA scintillation proximity assay for histone demethylases.
Covalent modifications, such as methylation and demethylation of lysine residues in histones, play important roles in chromatin dynamics and the regulation of gene expression. The lysine demethylases (KDMs) catalyze the demethylation of lysine residues on histone tails and are associated with diverse human diseases, including cancer, and are therefore proposed as targets for the therapeutic mod...
متن کاملScintillation Proximity Assay on the TopCount Microplate Scintillation Counter
The TopCountTM Microplate Scintillation Counter quantitates radioisotopes by liquid scintillation counting in standard microplate formats. Assays that previously had to be transferred from microplates to vials or to non-standard formats for counting can now be quantitated directly in microplates. TopCount can count up to 12 samples simultaneously with performance comparable to that of discrete ...
متن کاملScintillation Proximity Assay (SPA): Custom Assay Development and Membrane Validation
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) represent attractive drug targets because they participate in a wide range of physiological processes and are believed to play a role in a variety of disease states. At least a third of all prescription drugs on the market today are molecules acting as agonists or antagonists of the GPCR. Receptor-ligand interaction studies are pivotal in the successful ident...
متن کاملScintillation proximity assay for DNA binding by human p53.
Many DNA binding proteins are known to regulate gene expression. When that binding is altered, a disease state can result. A common method for measuring DNA binding, namely electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) is often used but it is not amenable to rapid screening of many samples. As an alternative method, we have developed a DNA binding assay for the tumor suppressor protein p53 in a 9...
