Lonza PPiLight™ Inorganic Pyrophosphate Assay is a bioluminescence-based assay for sensitive quantification of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) in reactions.
Lonza PPiLight™ Inorganic Pyrophosphate Assay is a bioluminescence-based assay for the sensitive quantification of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) in biochemical reactions. PPi is released as a by-product of many enzymatic reactions involving nucleoside triphosphates — including DNA and RNA polymerisation, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases, and nucleotide addition by reverse transcriptases — making PPi measurement a powerful tool for real-time monitoring of enzymatic activity and sequencing-by-synthesis workflows.
