Sialyltransferase Activity Kit Assay Principle

Sialyltransferase Activity Kit Assay Principle fig 1

A reaction mixture containing CMP-Sialic Acid, an acceptor substrate, and CD73 is added to each well of a 96-well microplate.

Sialyltransferase Activity Kit Assay Principle fig 2

The reaction is initiated by adding the sialyltransferase to each well of the microplate.

Sialyltransferase Activity Kit Assay Principle fig 3

The Malachite Green Phosphate Detection Reagents are added to the wells. The reactions are terminated and a green color develops in proportion to the amount of inorganic phosphate released by the coupling phosphatase. The absorbance of the color at 620 nm is measured.
