Application
The Histone Deacetylase Assay Kit provides a simple method for the detection of HDAC activity based on a two-step enzymatic reaction. The substrate for this enzymatic assay is a substituted peptide with an acetylated lysine residue and a bound fluorescent group. The first step of the reaction is deacetylation of the acetylated lysine side chain by the HDAC containing sample (HeLa cell extract, purified enzyme, etc.). The second step is the cleavage of the deacetylated substrate by the developer solution and the release of the free highly fluorescent group. The measured fluorescence is directly proportional to the deacetylation activity of the sample.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that remove acetyl groups from histone proteins. HDACs are important regulators of gene expression and genome function. They are implicated in a number of human disease states, namely several cancers, neurological disorders, and aging. Therefore, HDAC are relevant key targets for therapeutic intervention. Moreover, histone deacetylase inhibitors have been shown to serve as anti-tumor agents.
Features and Benefits
The kit includes all the reagents required for the fast and easy measurement of HDAC activity in cell or nuclear extracts, or with purified enzyme preparations. In addition, the kit provides HeLa cell lysate as a source of HDAC activity for inhibitor screening or as a positive control, a HDAC inhibitor (Trichostatin A), and a standard to enable activity quantitation.
Analysis Note
The Histone Deacetylase Assay Kit has been tested on HeLa, HEK 293T, NIH 3T3, and U 973 cell extracts.

Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors are a class of drugs used in the cancer treatment. Here, we developed a library of 19 analogues of Vorinostat, an HDAC inhibitor used in lymphomas treatment. In Vorinostat, we replaced the hydrophobic phenyl group with

The cyclic tetrapeptide 1-alaninechlamydocin was purified from a Great Lakes-derived fungal isolate identified as a Tolypocladium sp. Although the planar structure was previously described, a detailed analysis of its spectroscopic data and biological activity are reported here for the first

Methionine restriction (MR) dramatically extends the healthspan of several organisms. Methionine-restricted rodents have less age-related pathology and increased longevity as compared with controls, and recent studies suggest that humans might benefit similarly. Mechanistically, it is likely that the decreased IGF-1
