Applications: Useful for studying enzyme kinetics and screening small molecular inhibitors for drug discovery and HTS applications.
Background: LCK is a tyrosine kinase that phosphorylates the CD3 receptor and is essential for T cell development and activation. LCK also associates with the cytoplasmic domains of the CD4 and CD8 glycoproteins and interacts with the beta-chain of the interleukin-2 receptor. LCK inhibitors are being investigated as a promising therapeutic approach to autoimmune disease and other inflammatory disorders.
Description: The LCK Assay Kit is designed to measure LCK activity for screening and profiling applications using Kinase-Glo® MAX as a detection reagent.
Storage Stability: Up to 6 months when stored as recommended.
Supplied As: The LCK Assay Kit comes in a convenient 96-well format, with enough purified recombinant LCK, Protein Tyrosine Kinase Substrate (Poly-Glu,Tyr 4:1), ATP, and kinase assay buffer for 96 enzyme reactions.
Biosafety Level: Not applicable (BSL-1)
