Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase Cell-Based Assay Kit

Mammalian sEH is a member of the (alpha)/(beta)-hydrolase fold family of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of exogenous and endogenous epoxides to vicinal diols. Endogenous substrates for sEH include EETs which exhibit vasodilatory and anti-inflammatory activity. Cayman's sEH Cell-Based Assay provides a convenient 96-well plate, fluorescence-based method for detecting epoxide hydrolase activity in whole cells. The assay utilizes Epoxy Fluor 7, a sensitive fluorescent substrate for sEH that can be used to monitor the activity of both human and murine enzymes.

Additional Info

Mammalian soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) is a member of the (alpha)/(beta)-hydrolase fold family of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of exogenous and endogenous epoxides to vicinal diols. sEH is a homodimer consisting of two domains. The C-terminal domain is responsible for the epoxide hydrolase activity while the N-terminal domain has a catalytic center with phosphatase activity. Endogenous substrates for sEH include epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) which exhibit vasodilatory and anti-inflammatory activity. Inhibition of sEH in animal models was shown to effectively treat hypertension and vascular inflammation as well as related syndromes. These studies demonstrate the value for targeting sEH for development of small molecule inhibitors as therapeutics. Cayman
