A continuous luminescence assay for monitoring kinase activity: signalling the ADP/ATP ratio using a discrete europium complex.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report the application of a stable cationic europium complex [Eu.1]+ in a continuous-read luminescence assay for kinase activity. [Eu.1]+ binds reversibly to ATP and ADP in water, at neutral pH, in the presence of Mg2+ ions, providing distinctive luminescence responses that permits the kinase-catalysed conversion of ATP to ADP to be monitored in real-time.

Probing Conformational Feature of a Recombinant Pyruvate Kinase by Limited Proteolysis
Pyruvate kinase is a key enzyme in glycolytic pathway that catalyzes the transphosphorylation between phosphoenolpyruvate and ADP to yield ATP and Pyruvate. Geobacillus stearothermophillus has a stable pyruvate kinase with determined crystal structure that composed of four separate domains. Given that limited proteolysis experiments can be successfully used to probe conformational features of p...
متن کاملThe effects of ginsenoside Rb1 on fatty acid β-oxidation, mediated by AMPK, in the failing heart
Objective(s): This study intended to investigate the effects of Ginsenoside-Rbl (Gs-Rbl) on fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO) in rat failing heart and to identify potential mechanisms of Gs-Rbl improving heart failure (HF) by FAO pathway dependent on AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Materials and Methods: Rats with chronic HF, induced by adriamycin (Adr), were randomly grouped into 7 groups. Gs-...
متن کاملPlasma ADP levels: direct determination with luciferase luminescence using a biometer.
A method is described for the determination of low plasma levels of adenosine-5'-diphosphate (ADP) using a Dupont Biometer to measure luminescence produced by the luciferin-luciferase reaction. Endogenous ATP is removed by incubation with luciferase. The remaining ADP is then quantitated, following its conversion to ATP, after incubation with creatine phosphate and creatine kinase. The mean coe...

from 2 to 9 m . Mn2+ had about 25 % the activity of Mgz+. With Mgz+ in excess, ADP activated the kinase up to 5-fold as measured by colorimetric or radiotracer assay. With ATP at 5 mM and Mg2+ at 15 m, activity increased with ADP up to 5 mM. If phosphoenolpyruvate plus pyruvate kinase were added to controls, reconverting ADP into ATP, their activity was decreased and an %fold stimulation of act...
متن کاملExpression and Purification of the luciferase enzyme and in Vivo ATP Assay
Introduction: Gene expression and purification of luciferases from the firefly, Lampyris turkestanicus, and optimization of cellular ATP measurements were performed. Methods: cDNA encoding luciferases from Lampyris turkestanicus was transferred from pQE30 vector into pET28a expression vector and pLtu28 was built. Newly constructed vector was expressed in E. coli XL1 Blue and the recombinant l...
