General description

The Alkaline Phosphatase (AP) Kit uses a fluorometric assay to detect AP activity. The kit capability is linear over a wide range of enzyme concentrations, which makes it particularly well suited for comparative analysis.
The gene for alkaline phosphatase (AP) commonly serves as a reporter gene and is used to determine the strength of promoters and enhancers, define the role of transcription factors, assess transfection efficiency and measure the success of molecular cloning attempts. The alkaline phosphatase (AP) kit uses a fluorometric assay to detect AP activity. The kit capability is linear over a wide range of enzyme concentrations, which makes it particularly well suited for comparative analysis.

Application

Suitable for measuring the alkaline phosphatase (AP) or secreted alkaline phosphatase (SEAP)reporter gene activity. The Alkaline Phosphatase Kit can be used to determine the strength of promoters and enhancers, define the role of transcription factors, assess transfection efficiency, and measure the success of molecular cloning attempts.

Also suitable for detection of AP activity in pluripotent stem cells, including embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs).
Alkaline Phosphatase Detection Kit, Fluorescence has been used to determine alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) helps in hydrolyses and transphosphorylation of several phosphoric acid monoesters. It modulates various intracellular processes, that are associated with cell cycle, apoptosis, growth and signal transduction pathways.

Features and Benefits

  • Up to 100x more sensitive than colorimetric assays
  • SEAP can be measured without sample destrutcion
  • Rapid and reproducible results
  • Safe and easy-to-use

The Alkaline Phosphatase Kit contains:
50mL Fluorescent Assay Buffer ( B6558)
6 mL Dilution Buffer (B6433)
50 μl Alkaline Phosphatase Control Enzyme, 0.1 mg/mL (C9361)

c-Jun is an oncogenic transcription factor involved in the regulation of cell proliferation, apoptosis and transformation. We have previously reported that cell transformations induced by ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) and c-Ha-ras oncogene, commonly activated in various cancer cells, are associated with
