Principle

Principle

Principle

The formation of NADH is measured at 340 nm by spectrophotometry.

Unit definition

One unit causes the formation of one micromole of NADH per minute under the conditions detailed below.

Method

Reagents

A. Tris-HCl buffer, pH 8.0 50 mM, containing 13.3 mM MgCl2
B. Glucose solution 0.67 M in Tris-HCl buffer solution (A) (The solution should be keep at room temperature for at least 1 hour before use)
C. ATP solution 16.5 mM in Tris-HCl buffer solution (A) (Should be freshly prepared)
D. NAD solution 6.8 mM in Tris-HCl buffer solution (A) (Should be freshly prepared)
E. G-6-PDH solution 300 U/mL (Dilute with Tris-HCl buffer solution (A) and store on ice)
F. Enzyme diluent Tris-HCl buffer solution (A) containing 0.1 % of bovine serum albumin

Procedure

1.Prepare the following reaction mixture in a cuvette (d= 1.0cm) and equilibrate at 30℃ for approximately 5 minutes.

2.30 mL Tris-HCl buffer solution (A)
0.50 mL Glucose solution (B)
0.10 mL ATP solution (C)
0.10 mL NAD solution (D)
0.01 mL G-6-PDH solution (E)
Concentration in assay mixture
Tris-HCl buffer 50 mM
Glucose 0.11 M
ATP 0.53 mM
NAD 0.22 mM
MgCl2 13 mM
BSA 3.2 μg/mL
G-6-PDH approx.1.0 U/mL

2.Add 0.1ml of the enzyme solution* and mix by gentle inversion.

3.Record the increase of optical density at 340 nm against water for 4 to 5 minutes with a spectrophotometer thermostated at 30 ℃ and calculate the ΔOD per minute from the initial portion of the curve (ΔOD test).

At the same time, measure the blank rate (ΔOD blank) by the same method as the test except that the enzyme diluent (F) is added instead of the enzyme solution.

*Dissolve the enzyme preparation on ice-cold enzyme diluent (F) and dilute to 0.1−0.3 U/mL with the same buffer, immediately before the assay.

Calculation

Activity can be calculated by using the following formula :

  • Volume activity (U/ml) =

  • ΔOD/min (OD test−OD blank)×Vt×df


    6.22×1.0×Vs

  • = ΔOD/min×5.0×df

Weight activity (U/mg) = (U/ml)×1/C

Vt : Total volume (3.11 mL)
Vs : Sample volume (0.1 mL)
1.0 : Light path length (cm)
6.22 : Millimolar extinction coefficient of NADH (cm2/micromole)
df : Dilution factor
C : Enzyme concentration in dissolution (c mg/mL)
