New Transcreener UDP2 Assay with a Fluorescence Intensity Readout
Friday, 29 May 2020
BellBrook Labs scientists have developed a new universal UDP detection assay for the measurement of Glycosyltransferase activity. The Transcreener UDP2 FI Assay extends the Transcreener platform for UDP detection by utilizing a simple fluorescence intensity (FI) output. It can be used on fluorescence readers typically found in academic and therapeutic research laboratories, as well as

Using a Glycosyltransferase Activity Assay to Study Glycosylation and the Function of GTs
Tuesday, 09 July 2019
Glycosyltransferase (GT) enzymes are incredibly diverse in their abilities to catalyze the transfer of sugar molecules to protein, carbohydrate, and lipid substrates. GTs have various metabolic and regulatory roles in biology. Glycosyltransferase targets provide different areas of therapeutic potential in a wide array of disease, including cancer, metabolic disorders, and infectious disease. A glycosyltransferase activity
