Used to monitor release of thiols, quantitate thiol in microplate reactions, and to distinguish proliferating cancer cells by nucleolar protein staining.
A microfluorometric assay for thiols has been developed using the thiol-specific fluorochrome N-[4-(7-diethylamino-4-methyl-3-coumarinyl)phenyl]maleimide (CPM). The technique may be used to quantitate either cellular or plasma thiols over a range of 0.01 to 3.0 nmol and may be used with as
Quinones undergo redox cycling and/or arylation reactions with key biomolecules involved with cellular Ca2+ regulation. The present study utilizes nanomolar quantities of the fluorogenic maleimide 7-diethylamino-3-(4'-maleimidylphenyl)-4-methylcoumarin (CPM) to measure the reactivity of hyperreactive sulfhydryl moieties on sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membranes
N-myristoylation is the irreversible attachment of a C(14) fatty acid, myristic acid, to the N-terminal glycine of a protein via formation of an amide bond. This modification is catalyzed by myristoyl-coenzyme A (CoA):protein N-myristoyltransferase (NMT), an enzyme ubiquitous in eukaryotes

Methods for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of thiols by means of the fluorogenic reagent 7-diethylamino-3-(4'-maleimidylphenyl)-4-methylcoumarin are described, with particular reference to the trypanosomatid metabolites glutathionylspermidine (GSH-spermidine) and trypanothione. Second-order rate constants for the derivatization of seven different thiols under
The pathophysiology and underlying pain mechanisms of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are poorly understood. The aims were to assess somatosensory function at the temporomandibular joints (TMJs) and to examine whether conditioned pain modulation (CPM) differs between TMD pain patients (n =
