E. coli MurA Assay Kit Plus-500 (ProFoldin Product Code: MURA500KE)
| Description: | Antibacterial Drug Target ׀ MurA or UDP-N-acetylglucosamine enolpyruvyl transferase catalyzes the first committed step in peptidoglycan biosynthesis in bacteria. It is an essential enzyme and attractive target for anti-bacterial drug discovery. MurA transfers enolpyruvate from phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to uridine diphospho-N-acetylglucosamine (UNAG) generating enolpyruvyl-UDPN-acetylglucosamine (EP-UNAG) and inorganic phosphate. The Bacterial MurA Assay is based on measurement of the inorganic phosphate generated from the MurA reaction. The inorganic phosphate is detected by light absorbance at 650 nm. The assay reactions and detection can be performed by using 384-well or 96-well assay plates. Alternatively, the assay reaction can be carried out in Eppendorf tubes and the signal is measured using a cuvette. The high throughput assay can be used for screening inhibitors of bacterial MurA in drug discovery research. It may also be used for characterization of bacterial MurA. This product includes the reagents for 500 assays in a 384-well plate assay format including 2 ml of 10 x Assay buffer, 0.170 ml of 100 x PEP, 0.170 ml of 100 x UDP-N-acetyl glucosamine (UGN), 0.170 ml of 100 x E. coli MurA (5000 nM) and 25 ml of Dye for phosphate detection. |
