Description

The Sialidase Fluorogenic Assay Kit is designed to measure Sialidase NANH (N-acylneuraminate glycohydrolase) activity for screening and profiling applications. It comes in a convenient 96-well format, with purified recombinant Salmonella typhimurium sialidase, Sialidase substrate, Sialidase assay buffer, and Stop Solution for 100 enzyme reactions. Sialidase inhibitor NCGC00063279 (N-Acetyl-2,3-dehydro-2-deoxyneuraminic acid) is also included as a control.

The Sialidase fluorogenic substrate is incubated with Sialidase. Hydrolyzation of the Sialidase substrate releases a fluorophore (λexc/λem = 365 nm/445 nm). The increase in fluorescence at λ=445 nm is directly proportional to Sialidase activity.

Background

Sialidases are glycosyl hydrolases that release α-2, 3-, α-2, 6- and α-2, 8-glycosidic linkages of terminal sialic acid residues from oligosaccharides, glycoproteins, and glycolipids. The Salmonella typhimurium sialidase NANH has been shown to have a high KM value (mM range) against polyvalent targets and plays a role in enhancement of NK cell-mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. Salmonella typhimurium sialidase is thought to be an immune-modulatory enzyme, therefore, its regulation may be important for therapy of diseases associated with disorders of the immune system.
