Abstract

The sensitive GTPase-Glo™ Assay analyzes the intrinsic activities of GTPase, GAP-stimulated GTPase, GAP and GEF by enzymatic conversion of GTP remaining after the GTPase reaction into ATP followed by bioluminescent detection of the created ATP. Measuring the luminescence from the GTPase-Glo™ Assay is easy on the GloMax® Discover System because the protocol comes preloaded on the instrument. The extended dynamic range and minimal well-to-well cross talk of the GloMax® Discover System allows you to easily measure signals of varying intensities on the same plate. This Application Note describes the protocol to measure GAP-stimulated GTPase activity using the GTPase-Glo™ Assay and GloMax® Discover System.

Application Note #AN293
