DPP7 Assay Kit

• Background:

  Dipeptidyl peptidase-7 (DPP7), also known as DPP2, is a serine aminopeptidase found in quiescent lymphocytes. Inhibition of this enzyme induces apoptosis, and levels of DPP7 are elevated in many tumors, suggesting that DPP7 may be involved in a novel pathway for tumor suppression.

• Description:

  The Fluorogenic DPP7 Assay Kit is designed to measure DPP7 activity using purified DPP7 for screening and profiling applications. The key to the Fluorogenic DPP7 Assay Kit is the specific, fluorogenic substrate. Using this kit, only one simple step on a microtiter plate is required for DPP7 reactions. The fluorometric substrate is incubated with a sample containing DPP7 enzyme to produce a fluorophore that can then be measured using a fluorescence reader.Need us to run inhibitor screens or profile your compounds against DPP7?

• UniProt:

  Q9UHL4

• Applications:

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

• Shipping Conditions:

  -80°C

• Storage Conditions:

  At least 6 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.

• Notes:

  The AMC standard is included so the researcher can quatitatively determine the specific activity of the enzyme using the AMC standard as a measure of how much AMC substrate was cleaved to release free AMC.

• Contraindications:

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