Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 11

The USP11 Inhibitor Screening Assay Kit is a 96-well format fluorogenic assay designed to measure the activity of the deubiquitinating (DUB) enzyme USP11 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 11) for screening and profiling applications. The kit contains enough purified USP11 protein, Ubiquitinated-AMC substrate, and assay buffer for 100 reactions. To determine the effect of an inhibitor on USP11 activity, the enzyme should be preincubated with or without the test inhibitor prior to adding the Ub-AMC substrate to the reaction. The assay was functionally validated using Ub-Aldehyde, a potent inhibitor of DUB subfamilies ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolases (UCHs), ubiquitin-specific proteases (USPs), Ovarian Tumor Proteases (OTU), and Machado-Josephin domain proteases (MJD). Figure 1: Illustration of the assay principle. Ubiquitin-AMC is a fluorogenic substrate for ubiquitin hydrolases based on the C-terminus derivatization of ubiquitin with 7-amido-4-methylcoumarin (AMC). In conjugated form, the energy emitted from fluorochrome AMC is quenched. Upon proteolysis, AMC is no longer quenched and emits fluorescence with excitation/emission maxima of 350/460 nm. The increase in fluorescence is proportional to DUB activity. Need us to run inhibitor screens or profile your compounds against USP11?
