A simple linearization method unveils hidden enzymatic assay interferences

Abstract: Enzymes are among the most important drug targets in the pharmaceutical industry. The bioassays used to screen enzyme modulators can be affected by unaccounted interferences such as time-dependent inactivation and inhibition effects. Using procaspase-3, caspase-3, and α-thrombin as model enzymes, we show that some of these effects are not eliminated by merely ignoring the reaction phases that follow initial-rate measurements. We thus propose a linearization method (LM) for detecting spurious changes of enzymat… Show more
