Application Comment Organism
analysis development of two new continuous, coupled assays for ornithine-delta-aminotransferase (OAT) that are more sensitive than previous methods, measure activity in real time, and can be carried out in multi-well plates for convenience and high throughput. The first assay is based on the reduction of DELTA1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C), generated from ornithine by OAT, using human pyrroline 5-carboxylate reductase 1, which results in the concomitant oxidation of NADH to NAD+. This procedure is three times more sensitive than previous methods, and is suitable for the study of small molecules as inhibitors or inactivators of OAT or as a method to determine OAT activity in unknown samples. The second method involves the detection of L-glutamate, produced during the regeneration of the cofactor PLP of OAT by an unamplified modification of the commercially available Amplex® Red L-glutamate detection kit (Life Technologies). This assay is recommended for the determination of the substrate activity of small molecules against OAT Homo sapiens
