Recombinant full-length human BRK was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal GST tag. BRK is a member of the non-receptor tyrosine kinases (PTKs) that contains an amino terminal SH3 and SH2 domain as well as the catalytic domain.
- Easily Screen and Profile BRK Kinase Inhibitors
- Includes kinase, substrate and reaction buffer
- Use with ADP-Glo™ Assay for bioluminescent detection of kinase activity
Recombinant full-length human BRK was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal GST tag. BRK is a member of the non-receptor tyrosine kinases (PTKs) that contains an amino terminal SH3 and SH2 domain as well as the catalytic domain (1). BRK expression is low or undetectable in normal mammary tissue and benign lesions. However, approximately two-thirds of breast tumors express appreciable levels, and 27% of tumors over express BRK by fivefold or more (2). ADP-Glo Kinase Assay is a luminescent kinase assay that measures ADP formed from a kinase reaction; ADP is converted into ATP, which is a substrate in a reaction catalyzed by Ultra-Glo Luciferase that produces light. The luminescent signal positively correlates with ADP amount and kinase activity. The assay is well suited for measuring the effects chemical compounds have on the activity of a broad range of purified kinases, making it ideal for both primary screening as well as kinase selectivity profiling. The ADP-Glo Kinase Assay can be used to monitor the activity of virtually any ADP-generating enzyme (e.g., kinase or ATPase) using up to 1mM ATP. Kinase Enzyme System contains: Kinase: BRK, 10ug (Human, recombinant full-length). MW: ~80kDa. Substrate: Poly (4:1 Glu, Tyr) peptide. Other: Reaction Buffer, DTT, MnCl2.
