The Fluorogenic SIRT3 Assay Kit is a complete assay system designed to measure Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) activity for screening and profiling applications. The Fluorogenic SIRT3 Assay Kit is based on a unique fluorogenic substrate and developer combination. This assay method eliminates dealing with the radioactivity, extraction, and chromatography aspects of traditional assays. Using this kit, only two simple steps on a microtiter plate are needed to analyze the SIRT3 activity level. First, the HDAC fluorometric substrate (HDAC substrate 1), containing an acetylated lysine side chain, is incubated with purified SIRT3 enzyme. The deacetylation sensitizes the substrate so subsequent treatment with the Lysine Developer produces a fluorophore that can then be measured using a fluorescence reader.
