PARP Universal Colorimetric Assay Kit
PARP Universal Colorimetric Assay Kit Summary
Ideal for the in vitro screening of candidate PARP-1 inhibitors and determination of IC50 values.Key Benefits
• Colorimetric readout
• 96 strip-well format
• Sensitive – detects 10 mU PARP /well
• Assay Time ~3 hrs
Why Use the PARP/Apoptosis Colorimetric Assay Kit?
This ELISA based assay detects biotinylated poly (ADP-ribose) deposited by PARP-1 onto immobilized histones in a 96-well format. The addition of Strep-HRP (biotin-binding protein) and a colorimetric HRP substrate yields relative absorbance that correlates with PARP-1 activity.

Scientific Data
Inhibition of PARP Activity by 3-aminobenzamide. Graphical representation of the colorimetric readout of a PARP standard curve (A) and an inhibition curve for the PARP inhibitor 3-aminobenzamide (provided in the kit). (B) The standard curve is used to translate absorbance values to activity units of PARP.
FAQs
-
With what species does this kit work?
This kit is not species specific. It is suitable for enzymes that will be conserved across all mammals and for tissue homogenates.
-
What PARP isoform is detected in this kit?
This is a universal PARP kit. We expect that all 3 isoforms of PARP will be detected by this kit.
-
Is the kit capable of measuring PARP hyperactivation (ie. greater than 100% of the PARP positive control)?
With this kit, hyperactivation may be possible since it is a cell free system. It is possible that test molecules increase the binding of PARP to the activated DNA or inhibit its dissociation. We are unable to confirm if PARP may become bound to the DNA and trapped within the replication fork or if this would allow for hyperactivation.
-
What is the ratio of NAD and activated DNA relative to the concentration of enzyme in the final well?
The ratio of PARP to DNA is 2:1 and NAD is in excess in the final well.
