| | PDE Enzyme Assays Using [3H]cAMP as Substrate |
| Description: | The following phosphodiesterase activities are measured using [3H]cAMP as reaction substrate: human PDE3A (catalytic domain) and human PDE4D. Both enzymes are cloned and purified following standard procedures. The assay buffer is prepared to give a final concentration in the assay of 50 mM Tris-HCl, 8.3 mM MgCl2, 1.7 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and 0.1% Bovine serum albumin at pH 7.5. Final enzyme concentrations are 0.008 and 0.021 nM for PDE3A and PDE4D, respectively. Reactions are started by addition of the substrate, [3H]cAMP, to give a final concentration of 47 nM. |
