Abstract

The Proteasome-Glo™ 3-Substrate System consists of three homogeneous, bioluminescent assays that measure the three proteolytic activities associated with the proteasome. Three substrates have been synthesized to monitor the chymotrypsin-like, trypsin-like and caspase-like activities associated with the proteasome. The Proteasome-Glo™ Assays are designed for use with multiwell plate formats and are ideal for automated high-throughput screening of proteasome activity and inhibition.
