| | In Vitro hLTC4 Synthase Enzyme Assay (Test A) |
| Description: | In the assay, LTC4 synthase catalyses the reaction where the substrate LTA4 is converted to LTC4. Recombinant human LTC4 synthase is expressed in Piccia pastoralis and the purified enzyme is dissolved in 25 mM tris-buffer pH 7.8 supplemented with 0.1 mM glutathione (GSH) and stored at −80 °C. In order to obtain IC50-values for the compounds, the following procedure was used: A volume (24 μL) of 0.25 g/mL LTC4 synthase in 75 mM tris (pH ~8.5), 0.5 mM MgCl2 and 3 mM GSH was preincubated for 10 min with 0.5 μL of compound of interest in DMSO at ten different concentrations, typically in the range 10^−9,5-10^−5 M as well as with DMSO only. The buffer is used as background. Runs are performed in duplicates. The enzymatic reaction is initiated by addition of 0.5 μL LTA4 in diglyme (final assay concentration 8 μM). The reaction is stopped after 1 min by addition of double the reaction volume of a stop solution (MeOH:H2O:acetic acid 70:30:1). |
