Enzyme Assay Methods to Validate DIGE Proteomics Data.

Enzyme activity assay methods can be used to corroborate the results generated by Difference Gel Electrophoresis (DIGE) proteomic experiments. Two assay methods were chosen to demonstrate how this can be achieved. Assays for determining the activity of superoxide dismutase and NADH dehydrogenase are outlined in detail in this paper. These methods were chosen as examples because they are frequently used in conjunction with DIGE proteomics.
