Gcase

Manufactured by Merck Group

The GCase is a laboratory equipment product developed by Merck Group. It is designed to measure the activity of the enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GCase) in biological samples. The GCase plays a crucial role in the breakdown of glucocerebroside, a lipid molecule. The product provides researchers and scientists with a reliable tool to assess GCase activity, which is important for the study of various metabolic disorders and diseases.

Total protein concentration in each sample was determined by a bicinchoninic acid colorimetric assay (Fisher Cat#23223 and 23224), using bovine serum albumin as a standard (Thermo Fisher Cat#23210). Protein was resolved on 5–20% gradient polyacrylamide gels using equal protein loading. Proteins were transferred to 0.2 um nitrocellulose membranes and detected with primary antibodies (Syn9027, CNDR, 1:20,000), pS129 α-synuclein (Abcam Cat#ab168381, 1:1000), GCase (Sigma-Aldrich Cat#G4171, 1:1,000), GCase (Santa Cruz Biotech Cat#sc-166407, 1:200), GFAP (Agilent Cat# Z0334, 1:5,000) or GAPDH (2-RGM2, Advanced Immunological, 1:5000). Primary antibodies were detected using IRDye 800 (Li-cor 925–32210) or IRDye 680 (Li-cor 925–68071) secondary antibodies, scanned on a Li-cor Odyssey Imaging System and analyzed using Image Studio software. Values obtained from this program were normalized to GAPDH or GFAP, and were further normalized to the mean control values.

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.
