Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  FASN Inhibition
Description:  FASN activity of the SKBr3 cell extract was determined by measuring either NADPH oxidation or the amount of thiol-containing coenzyme A (CoA) released during the fatty acid synthase reaction. The dye CPM (7-diethylamino-3-(4′-maleimidyl-phenyl)-4-methylcoumarin) contains a thiol reactive group that increases its fluorescence emission on reaction with the sulfhydryl group of CoA. The biochemical activities shown in TABLE 31 were determined using the fluorescence measurement of CoA release via a procedure described in Chung C. C. et al. (Assay and Drug Development Technologies, 2008, 6(3), 361-374).
