General description

This product has been discontinued.



The K-LISA Akt Activity Kit is a rapid, sensitive, ELISA-based activity assay suitable for measuring the kinase activity of purified or partially purified Akt preparations, in vitro Akt inhibitor screening, and for assessing the regulation of Akt in cell signaling. The assay utilizes a biotinylated peptide substrate (GRPRTSSFAEG) that is phosphorylated on the second serine by Akt1, Akt2, Akt3, SGK (Serum Glucocorticoid Kinase), and MSK1. Biotinylated Akt substrate and sample containing Akt are incubated in the presence of ATP in wells of a streptavidin-coated 96-well plate, which allows for phosphorylation and substrate capture in a single step.

Components

Biotinylated Akt substrate, phosphoserine detector antibody, streptavidin coated 96-well plate strips, HRP-conjugated secondary antobody, serine/threonine kinase assay buffer, ATP/MgCl₂, inhibitor, wash buffer, TMB substrate, stop solution, EDTA solution, plate sealers, and a user protocol. Purified Akt is available separately (Cat. No. 124006).
