Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Kinetic inhibition assays were conducted to determine the IC50 values for flavonoid inhibitors and the experiments were conducted on a Cary Eclipse spectrophotometer with an excitation of 305 nm, emission wavelength of 405 nm and bandpasses of 5 nm. Plx2A (5 μmol/L) was mixed with 250 μmol/L ε-NAD+, at various inhibitor concentrations in GH buffer. Triplicate reactions at 25 °C were monitored for 10 min intervals and then the initial slope was calculated for each trace. The kinetic data were fit to a Michaelis–Menten function generated in OriginLab Pro ver8 software to determine the IC50 value. The mechanism of flavonoid inhibition was determined for Quercetin as the model compound and entailed collection of full Michaelis–Menten datasets in the presence of 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40 μmol/L of inhibitor in a final DMSO concentration of 15% (v/v). Plx2A GH activity is not affected by DMSO in the reaction buffer until 20% (v/v). The inhibition data were transformed to the Lineweaver–Burk function and plotted to determine the inhibition pattern. Secondary plots were then generated to calculate the Ki value, which represents the Quercetin binding constant for Plx2A.

The DNA binding affinity of NEQ395 was determined by fluorescence anisotropy titration measurements. The experiments were performed with a Cary Eclipse Spectrophotometer by measuring the fluorescence at 20°C. Oligodeoxynucleotides (50 nM, Table 1) used for this assay were labelled with FAM at the 5′-end and binding isotherms obtained by reverse titration of NEQ395. Reactions were caried out in 25 mM Tris/HCl pH 6.5, 1 mM DTT and the protein concentration gradually decreased by replacing 37.5% of the mix in the cuvette with a solution of DNA in the same buffer (1.6x dilution). Fluorophores were excited at 490 nm (10 nm slit width) and the anisotropy was measured by monitoring the emission at 530 nm (10 nm slit width) and an integration time of 2 s. For the calculation of the dissociation constant (KD) the intensity of the bound and unbound labelled DNA was taken into account.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
