Pyruvate Kinase (PK) Activity Assay Kit
Product Specifications
Target
PK
Type
Colorimetric method
Field of Research
Glycolysis and Lipid Metabolism; Tricarboxylic Acid (TCA) Cycle
Assay Principle
In the presence of adenosine diphosphate (ADP), pyruvate kinase (PK) catalyzes the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to pyruvate, Lactate dehydrogenase catalyzes the reaction of pyruvic acid with NADH to produce lactic acid and NAD+. The activity of pyruvate kinase can be calculated by detection the absorbance changes at 340 nm.
