Drug Target Assay Kit

DNA topoisomerase IV, the ParC-ParE complex, can relax DNA, turning supercoiled DNA into its relaxed form.

Kit Components

Component T4RA-100KP
10 x Buffer 480 µl
10 x Supercoiled plasmid DNA 405 µl
100 x P. aeruginosa topoisomerase IV 45 µl
10 mM ATP 420 µl
1500 x Fluorescence dye H19 20 µl

Final reaction conditions: 20 mM Tris-HCl pH 8, 35 mM NH4OAc, 4.6% glycerol, 1 mM DTT, 0.005% Brij35, 8 mM MgCl2, 25 µg/ml supercoiled plasmid DNA, 1 mM ATP and 100 nM topoisomerase IV.

Assay Principle

In the presence of magnesium, relaxed DNA quenches the fluorescence of DNA dye H19 much more than supercoiled DNA does. As topoisomerase IV relaxes the supercoiled plasmid, the fluorescent signal (Ex 485 nm / Em 535 nm) decreases.

Q.What does this kit measure?
A.It measures the DNA relaxation activity of P. aeruginosa topoisomerase IV. Relaxed DNA lowers the fluorescence of dye H19 more than supercoiled DNA, so the signal drops as the enzyme relaxes the plasmid.
Q.What is included in the kit?
A.The P. aeruginosa Topo IV DNA Relaxation Assay Kit Plus (100 assays) includes 10 x buffer (480 µl), 10 x supercoiled plasmid DNA (405 µl), 100 x P. aeruginosa topoisomerase IV (45 µl), 10 mM ATP (420 µl) and 1500 x fluorescence dye H19 (20 µl).
Q.Is a protocol available?
A.Yes. The manufacturer's protocol (Topo IV DNA Relaxation Assays, linked under Documents) covers catalog # T4RA-100KP.
Q.How long does the assay take?
A.About 65 min (60 min reaction + 5 min detection). See the protocol for the exact steps.
Q.How should the kit be stored?
A.The P. aeruginosa Topo IV DNA Relaxation Assay Kit Plus is shipped frozen. Please contact us for long-term storage conditions.
