Product overview

The Histone Acetyltransferase (HAT) Activity Colorimetric Assay Kit offers a convenient, nonradioactive system for a rapid and sensitive detection of HAT activity in mammalian samples. The kit utilizes active Nuclear Extract as a positive control and acetyl-CoA as a cofactor. Acetylation of peptide substrate by active HAT releases the free form of CoA which then serves as an essential coenzyme for producing NADH. NADH can easily be detected spectrophotometrically upon reacting with a soluble tetrazolium dye. The detection can be continuous and suitable for kinetic studies. The kit provides a simple, straightforward protocol for a complete assay.

Relevance

Histone acetyltransferases (HAT) are enzymes that acetylate conserved lysine amino acids on histone proteins. They have been implicated to play a crucial role in various cellular functions, such as gene transcription, differentiation, and proliferation.

Cellular localization

Cytoplasmic and Nuclear. Note=Nuclear in S-phase cells and cytoplasmic.
