Application: Great for studying enzyme kinetics and screening small molecular inhibitors for drug discovery and HTS applications.
Background: NAMPT catalyzes the formation of nicotinamide mononucleotide from nicotinamide and 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP). It is the rate limiting component in the mammalian NAD biosynthesis pathway. The protein is thought to be involved in many important biological processes, including metabolism, stress response and aging.
Description: The NAMPT Inhibitor Screening Assay Kit is designed to measure NAMPT activity for screening and profiling applications. The key to the assay is a coupled reaction including NMNAT and ADH. NAMPT converts nicotinamide substrate to nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) via PRPP. NMNAT subsequently converts NMN to NAD+ , which is reduced by ADH to NADH, permitting detection of the fluorescent NADH signal.
Storage Stability: Stable at least 6 months from date of receipt, when stored as directed. Kit components require different storage conditions. Be sure to store each component at the proper temperature upon arrival.
Supplied As: Nicotinamide Phosphoribosyltransferase Protein, NAMPT, PBEF1, Visfatin, Pre-B-Cell Colony-Enhancing Factor 1, NMPT
Warnings: Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.
