JMJD1B Homogeneous Assay Kit
The JMJD1B Homogeneous Assay Kit is designed to measure JMJD1B activity for screening and profiling applications. JMJD1B, also known as JHDM2B and KDM3B, is a JumonjiC (JmjC) domain containing histone lysine demethylase that exhibits demethylation activity toward H3-K9Me3 and H3-K36Me3. TThe key to the JMJD1B Homogeneous Assay Kit is a highly specific antibody that recognizes demethylated substrate. With this kit, only three simple steps on a microtiter plate are required for methyltransferase detection. First, a sample containing JMJD1B enzyme is incubated with the biotinylated substrate. Next, acceptor beads and primary antibody are added, then donor beads, followed by reading the Alpha-counts.
Scheme 1: Our histone demethylase assays utilize highly specific antibodies that recognize demethylated products. First, a sample containing the enzyme is incubated with a biotinylated substrate. Next, acceptor beads and primary antibody are added, then donor beads, followed by reading the Alpha-counts, as shown above.
