Enzyme Profiling Tools

By Diana Hulboy, Ph.D.: 21.08.07 in Drug discovery research

Enzyme profiling is an important step in the drug discovery process where a lead compound is tested
for specificity against a panel of similar enzymes. As an example of the size of the enzyme profiling market,
it is estimated that $10 to $40 million is spent on protease profiling annually.

BIOMOL offers a number of enzyme profiling kits and assortment packs that facilitate rapid and economical
screening of compounds for specificity against focused enzyme panels.
Currently, BIOMOL offers panels of MMPs, phosphatases, ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes and caspases.
Each kit contains a panel of similar enzymes and the MMP Inhibitor Profiling Kits each contain a complete set
of reagents to screen MMP activity.
These kits are an economical way to screen a panel of enzymes without having to clone, express and develop
assays for multiple enzymes.
In addition to these enzyme panels, BIOMOL can put together custom panels from over 400 recombinant
enzymes in our product line including over 110 kinases.
