Background
L-tryptophan (L-Trp) is an essential amino acid necessary for protein synthesis in mammalian cells and the L-Trp to kynurenine (Kyn) pathway is firmly established as a key regulator of innate and adaptive immunity. Catabolism of L-Trp to Kyn maintains an immunosuppressive microenvironment by starving immune cells of L-Trp and releasing degradation products of L-Trp that have immunosuppressive functions. Indoleamine 2,3- dioxygenases (IDO1 & IDO2), two of the rate limiting enzymes in this pathway, are upregulated in many tumors, providing cancer cells with an avenue for immune evasion.
Description
TheIDO1Fluorogenic Inhibitor Screening Assay Kitis designed to measure enzyme inhibition of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) . TheIDO1 Fluorogenic Inhibitor Screening Assay Kitis simple to use and detects fluorescence at long wavelengths, which minimizes potential errors due to compound interference. In the assay, the inhibitor and enzyme are added to a sample containing L-Trp substrate. After a 1 hourincubation at room temperature, the fluorescence solution is added and incubated at 37oC for four hours. Activity is measured by reading sample fluorescence at l=510 nm following excitation of the reaction product at l=400 nm.
