Validation of Transcreener® EPIGEN Assays for Screening Chromatin Modifying Enzymes: Methylation and Acetylation
2 Dec 2014This poster demonstrates the sensitivity and signal stability of the MT and AT assay. The assay signal is stable for almost 48 hours, making the method very flexible for automated HTS protocols. By combining a novel enzymatic coupling step with the well characterized Transcreener® AMP2/GMP2 assay, the study has developed and validated a robust HTS assay that is sensitive and generic and can be used for a variety of HMTs, DNMTs and ATs.

Genome AnalysisGenomics, the study of genomes, includes functional genomics, evolutionary genomics and comparative genomics. There are many genomic technologies such as DNA sequencing of whole genomes, computational biology and bioinformatics. DNA and nucleic acids must be isolated and concentrated from cells for analysis with kits, automated analyzers and software. Other useful technologies for studying genomics include PCR, microarrays and electrophoresis.Labware and Lab SuppliesLabware and lab supplies include various forms of glassware, plasticware, reagents and personal protective equipment (PPE) and are used across all scientific laboratories, enabling daily tasks to be performed.
