IDO2 Inhibitor Screening Assay Kit

Products from BPS Bioscience require a minimum order value above 400€

Applications: Useful for the study of IDO2 enzymology, screening inhibitors, and selectivity profiling.

Background: L-tryptophan (L-Trp) is an essential amino acid necessary for protein synthesis in mammalian cells and the L-Trp to kynurenine (Kyn) pathway is firmly established as a key regulator of innate and adaptive immunity. Catabolism of L-Trp to Kyn maintains an immunosuppressive microenvironment by starving immune cells of L-Trp and releasing degradation products of L-Trp that have immunosuppressive functions. Indoleamine 2,3- dioxygenases (IDO1 &IDO2), two of the rate limiting enzymes in this pathway, are upregulated in many tumors, providing cancer cells with an avenue for immune evasion.

Contraindications: DMSO >0.5%, strong acids or bases, ionic detergents, high salt

Description: The IDO2 Inhibitor Screening Assay Kit is designed to measure IDO2 enzyme inhibition. The IDO2 Inhibitor Screening Assay Kit is simple to use. Inhibitor and enzyme are added to a sample containing L-Trp substrate.

Storage Stability: At least 6 months from date of receipt when stored as directed.

Supplied As: The kit comes in a convenient format, with enough reaction solution and enzyme to perform a total of 100 reactions.

Warnings: Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.

Biosafety Level: Not applicable (BSL-1)
