MONOOXYGENASE ASSAYS

摘要

Cytochrome P-450 assay methods and kits for the methods are provided employing a cytochrome P-450 enzyme, substrates characterized by having an oxidizable methylene group oxidized to an aldehyde and a fluorescent hydrazine. A fluorescent hydrazine is added to the reaction mixture and the resulting hydrazone analyzed by capillary electrophoresis. The method finds use in evaluating compounds for enzyme modulating activity.
