Proteasome Assay Kits
Proteasome Assay Kits are biochemical assay kits designed to measure the activity of proteasome enzymes in a sample. These kits typically employ fluorometric or colorimetric methods to detect the cleavage of specific substrate peptides by proteasomes, resulting in a measurable signal. AffiASSAY kits offer high sensitivity and specificity, allowing researchers to quantify proteasome activity accurately in various biological samples. They are widely used in research, drug discovery, and pharmaceutical development to study proteasome function, screen for proteasome inhibitors, and investigate the role of proteasomes in cellular processes and disease pathogenesis.
