The JMJD2C Chemiluminescent Assay Kit is designed to measure activity of the JMJD2C for screening and profiling applications. The key to the JMJD2C Chemiluminescent Assay Kit is a highly specific antibody that recognizes demethylated substrate. With this kit, only three simple steps on a microtiter plate are required for methyltransferase detection. First, a sample containing JMJD2C enzyme is incubated with a sample containing assay buffer for one hour. Next, primary antibody is added. Finally, the plate is treated with an HRP-labeled secondary antibody followed by addition of the HRP substrate to produce chemiluminescence that can then be measured using a chemiluminescence reader.

KDM4C, GASC1

Kit comes in a convenient format, with a 96-well plate* precoated with the methylated histone H3 peptide substrate, primary antibody, the secondary HRP-labeled antibody, demethylase assay buffer, and purified JMJD2C for 100 enzyme reactions.

DMSO >1%, strong acids or bases, ionic detergents, high salt

COMPONENTS:

See assay kit data sheet for detailed protocol.

12 months from date of receipt, when stored as directed. Kit components require different storage conditions. Be sure to store each component at the proper temperature upon arrival.

Great for studying enzyme kinetics and screening small molecular inhibitors for drug discovery and HTS applications.

The buffer in this kit was reformulated in May of 2015 with a different reducing agent to improve assay performance. The old formulation can still be purchased upon special request.

*The JMJD2C assay kit is also available in 8-well microstrip format; contact BPS Bioscience for more information.

Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.
