Glutaminase Assay Kit (Colorimetric) Reference: ARG82767 This gene encodes the K-type mitochondrial glutaminase. The encoded protein is an phosphate-activated amidohydrolase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of glutamine to glutamate and ammonia. This protein is primarily expressed in the brain and kidney plays an essential role in generating energy for metabolism, synthesizing the brain neurotransmitter glutamate and maintaining acid-base balance in the kidney. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]
MPO / Myeloperoxidase Activity Assay Kit (Colorimetric) Reference: ARG82770 Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a heme protein synthesized during myeloid differentiation that constitutes the major component of neutrophil azurophilic granules. Produced as a single chain precursor, myeloperoxidase is subsequently cleaved into a light and heavy chain. The mature myeloperoxidase is a tetramer composed of 2 light chains and 2 heavy chains. This enzyme produces hypohalous acids central to the microbicidal activity of neutrophils. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]
MPO / Myeloperoxidase Assay Kit (Fluorometric) Reference: ARG82771 Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a heme protein synthesized during myeloid differentiation that constitutes the major component of neutrophil azurophilic granules. Produced as a single chain precursor, myeloperoxidase is subsequently cleaved into a light and heavy chain. The mature myeloperoxidase is a tetramer composed of 2 light chains and 2 heavy chains. This enzyme produces hypohalous acids central to the microbicidal activity of neutrophils. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]
Caspase-8, 10 Activity Fluorometric Assay Kit Reference: RP10238K Caspase-8, 10 Activity Fluorometric Assay Kit can be used for assaying caspase-8, 10, 3, 7 activities in cell/tissue extracts in a 96-well plate format. Each of the supplied fluorogenic substrate and the pan caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK are sufficient for 250 x 100 μl reactions. The supplied TRAIL-treated cell lysate is used as a positive control, sufficient for 5 X 100 μl reactions.
