The Badrilla CAPTUREome^TM S-Palmitoylated protein kit is a simple and easy way of determining whether your protein of interest is post translationally modified with a palmitate group. The assay is based on the acyl-RAC (resin assisted capture) method and facilitates, with four simple steps – Block, Cleave, Capture and Analysis -  determination of protein palmitoylation.

Kit highlights

• Enables capture of S-palmitoylated proteins.
• Kit designed to process 4 x 5 biological samples with paired negative controls (i.e. 40 samples in total).
• Convenient stopping point after blocking treatment.
• Assay suitable for downstream SDS-PAGE, western blot or mass spectrometry analysis.

The new Badrilla SiteCounter^TM S-Palmitoylated protein kit is a quick and easy way to quantify the extent of S-palmitoylation of your protein of interest. Using a straightforward mass tag approach, modification of each cysteine residue results in an incremental increase in the mass of the protein.  The number of mobility shifts (as detected by western blot analysis) is observed as a ladder of protein bands, each ‘step’ in the ladder representing an additional s-palmitoylated cysteine residue.

Kit highlights

• Enables determination of the number of S-palmitoylation sites on a protein
• Enables calculation of S-palmitoylation stoichiometry
• Kit designed to process 2 x 6 biological samples with paired negative controls (i.e. 24 samples in total).
• Convenient stopping point after blocking treatment.
• Assay suitable for downstream western blot analysis
