Method for detecting enzymes adding functional groups to compounds
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11874281B2) discloses a method for detecting or quantifying an enzyme capable of adding a functional group to a compound in a sample. The method involves providing a compound directly covalently bound to a non-radioactive signaling moiety, a sample suspected of containing the enzyme, a source of the functional group, and means to separate the compound. The mixture is incubated to allow the compound to gain the functional group, which is then isolated by precipitating with a charged metal ion and a solvent. The resolubilized compound is then detected or quantified by the non-radioactive signaling moiety.
Furthermore, the method includes additional steps such as providing a normalizing reagent to promote precipitation, using specific compounds for precipitation and resolubilization, and blocking interfering moieties on the compound. The non-radioactive signaling moiety can be a variety of compounds like fluorescent, phosphorescent, chemiluminescent, chromogenic, chelating, electron dense, magnetic, energy transfer members, intercalating compounds, or combinations thereof. The detection or quantification of the compound can be carried out directly or indirectly, enhancing the versatility and applicability of the method in various enzyme detection scenarios. This patented method offers a comprehensive approach to detecting and quantifying enzymes in samples, providing a valuable tool for research and diagnostic applications in the field.
