The Tankyrase-1 Histone Ribosylation Assay Kit (Antibody Detection) is designed to measure Tankyrase-1 activity for screening and profiling applications. The key to the Tankyrase-1 Histone Ribosylation Assay Kit (Antibody Detection) is a highly specific antibody that recognizes poly (ADP-ribose)-modified histone. With this kit, only three simple steps on a microtiter plate are required for Tankyrase-1 reaction. First, NAD+ is incubated with a sample containing assay buffer and enzyme for one hour. Next, primary antibody is added. Finally, the plate is treated with an HRP-labeled secondary antibody followed by addition of the HRP substrate to produce chemiluminescence that can be measured using a chemiluminescence reader.
Kit comes in a convenient format, with a 384-well plate precoated with histone mixture, antibody against poly (ADP-ribose) modified histone, the secondary HRP-labeled antibody, NAD+, TNKS assay buffer, and purified TNKS1 enzyme for 384 enzyme reactions.

Disclaimers and Limitations
BPS Bioscience assay kits are validated using the listed components according to our specific protocol. Any deviations to kit components or protocols, such as using different proteins, cell/tissue lysates, or buffers (including using the same component from other commercial sources) will void any warranties on the performance of the assay kit and is not recommended.
