Methionine Sulfoxide Immunoblotting Kit Reference: 600160-10 Protein MetO is a reversible oxidative modification that occurs by exposure of protein(s) methionine residues to reactive oxygen species (ROS). Methionine oxidation can alter the function(s) of the modified proteins and if not reversed by MetO reductases can be further oxidized to methionine sulfone, an irreversible modification. Cayman’s MetO Immunoblotting Kit contains reagents needed for the immunochemical detection of proteins containing MetO residues by western blotting. MetO-containing samples of interest include those from cell or tissue lysates as well as semi-pure or purified proteins.
Melanocortin-3 Receptor Reporter Assay Kit Reference: 600180-100 Cayman's MC3R Reporter Assay consists of a 96-well plate coated with a transfection complex containing DNA constructs for MC3R and a cAMP response element regulated Secreted Alkaline Phosphatase (SEAP) reporter (MC3R Reverse Transfection Strip Plate). Cells grown on the transfection complex will express MC3R at the cell surface. Binding of agonists to MC3R initiates a signal transduction resulting in expression of SEAP. SEAP activity is measured following addition of luminescence-based alkaline phosphatase substrate provided in the kit.
Melanocortin-4 Receptor Reporter Assay Kit Reference: 600190-100 Cayman’s MC4R Reporter Assay consist of a 96-well plate coated with a transfection complex containing DNA constructs for MC4R and a cAMP response element regulated Secreted Alkaline Phosphatase (SEAP) reporter (MC4R Reverse Transfection Strip Plate). Cells grown on the transfection complex will express MC4R at the cell surface. Binding of agonists to MC4R initiates a signal transduction cascade resulting in expression of SEAP which is secreted into the cell culture media. SEAP activity is measured following addition of a luminescence-based alkaline phosphatase substrate provided in the kit.
