APOPTAG® Plastic Coverslips are designed to be custom fitted to the specific APOPTAG® kit application.

The ApopTag® Peroxidase In Situ Oligo Ligation Kit specifically detects apoptosis by staining only cells that contain double-stranded breaks that are blunt-ended or have a one base 3' overhang (cells containing nicked, gapped, 3'-recessed, 3'-overhanging ends longer than one base and single-stranded ends are not detected). The high analytic specificity of the ApopTag® ISOL Kit minimizes background due to non-specific labeling…

The Amplifluor™ UniPrimer™-fluorescein is a hairpin primer labeled with a fluorescent energy transfer pair (fluorescein and non-fluorescent quencher) and a 3' single-stranded oligonucleotide tail and is provided at a concentration of 5.0 μM (25.0 mL).

The Amplifluor™ SNPs Genotyping System for Assay Development is designed for new users unfamiliar with the technology. This kit contains the fluorescein-, sulforhodamine- and JOE-labeled Amplifluor™ UniPrimers™ as well as control primers and templates.

The Amplifluor™ SNPs HT Genotyping System FAM-SR is designed for users familiar with Amplifluor™ and is for use with fluorescent plate readers.

The Amplifluor™ SNPs HT Genotyping System FAM-JOE is designed for users familiar with Amplifluor™ and is for users of real-time PCR detection instruments.

Sure Blot® Hybridization Membrane is a positively charged nylon membrane for rapid ionic bonding of nucleic acids. Due to its high nucleic acid retention capacity, Sure Blot® can be stripped and reprobed up to 10 times without altering its performance characteristics. A proprietary casting process ensures uniform surface characteristics and lot-to-lot consistency.

CHEMICON's Sure Blot® CHEMI™ Hybridization & Detection Kit is designed to provide high quality, non-radioactive detection of digoxigenin-labeled DNA probes hybridized to Sure Blot® Nylon Membrane. As an integrated hybridization and detection system, Sure Blot® CHEMI™ is quality controlled to produce high signal and low background. Comparable sensitivity to 32P is typically observed for single-copy gene detection. Sufficient re…

GST fusion-protein, corresponding to the p21-binding domain (PBD, residues 67-150) of human PAK-1 provided bound to glutathione agarose. Specifically binds to and precipitates Rac-GTP and cdc42-GTP from cell lysates.

GST-tagged fusion protein, corresponding to residues 7-89 of mouse Rhotekin Rho Binding Domain, expressed in E.coli and bound to glutathione-agarose. Specifically binds to and precipitates GTP-Rho, but not GDP-Rho from cell lysates.

Recombinant protein A covalently bound to magnetic beads. These beads provide users a rapid, reproducible and efficient reagent for collecting immunocomplexes for chromatin immunoprecipitations (ChIP) assays. Compared with conventional protein A agarose beads, protein A magnetic beads significantly reduce the handling time and mechanical stress on target immunocomplexes.

For use to immunoprecipitate transcriptionally active chromatin from mammalian cells using anti-Acetyl-Histone H4, ChIP grade rabbit antiserum.

For use to immunoprecipitate transcriptionally active chromatin from mammalian cells using anti-acetyl-Histone H3

A GST-tagged fusion protein, corresponding to residues 7-89 of mouse Rhotekin Rho Binding Domain, expressed in E. coli. Provided bound to glutathione-agarose. Purity 90%.

Anti-cdc42 is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 that recognizes cdc42 from human, mouse, rat and dog

The cocktails in this kit are intended for the inhibition of cellular Serine/Threonine protein phosphatases, Tyrosine phosphastases, acid and alkaline phosphatases.

This kit contains nonradioactive components for radiolabeling and purifying histone H4 peptide with [3H]-acetyl CoA. The radiolabeled peptide is a suitable substrate for assay of HDAC activity. HeLa nuclear extract, which is rich in histone deacetylase activity, is included as a positive control. The HDAC inhibitor sodium butyrate is provided to demonstrate specificity of the deacetylase activity.

Accessory reagent kit for the analysis of histone methyltransferase activity.

This kit provides the reagents required for the detection of citrulline-containing proteins by Western blot analysis with the anti-Citrulline antibody. Detection is a two-step process in which citrulline-containing proteins immobilized on nitrocellulose or PVDF are formaldehyde-cross linked to the membrane to improve protein retention, followed by modification of citrulline residues with 2,3-butanedione monoxime and antipyrine…

This assay is a simple two-step procedure performed in a microtiter plate. In the first step samples are incubated with the HDAC assay substrate, allowing deacetylation of the fluorometric substrate. Next, Activator Solution releases a fluorophore from the deacetylated substrate or standard.

This kit is designed to measure the phosphotransferase activity in a kinase cascade reaction initiated by activated Raf-1. Recombinant unactive MEK1 is the substrate for Raf-1. Once activated by Raf-1, MEK1 can phosphorylate and thereby activate another kit component, recombinant unactive MAP Kinase 2/Erk2. Activation of MAP Kinase 2/Erk2 is determined by phosphorylation of myelin basic protein (MBP), in vitro. Phosphorylation…

The assay kit is designed to measure B-Raf dependent phosphotransferase activity in a kinase cascade reaction using recombinant MEK1, unactive as a B-Raf substrate. Recombinant MAPK2/Erk2, unactive is phosphorylated and activated by the activated MEK1 leading to phosphorylation of a MAP Kinase substrate, myelin basic protein (MBP). [γ-32P]ATP is the final phosphate donor.

Intended for the assay of recombinant B-Raf (supplied) kinase activity with experimental variables as determined by the user. For assay of B-Raf activity from a cell lysate, we recommend an immunoprecipitation-kinase assay, using anti-B-Raf antibody (07-453).

Intended for the assay of recombinant Raf-1 (supplied) kinase activity, with experimental variables as determined by the user. For assay of Raf-1 activity from a cell lysate, we recommend an immunoprecipitation-kinase assay, using anti-Raf-1 antibody (07-396).

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP) is an important technique allowing the researcher to analyze in vivo interactions of proteins with genomic DNA. Any chromatin-associated or DNA binding protein can be analyzed with this technique, provided a good antibody to the protein exists. One can measure different proteins localized to a specific region of the genome, or the genome wide distribution of a specific protein. Another powe…
