| | Estrone Detection Assay for Evaluation of HSD17beta13 Activity |
| Description: | The liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) estrone detection assay monitors the conversion of estradiol to estrone by HSD17B13. This assay was undertaken in a 96wp format (Eppendorf deep well Plate 96/500) in an 80 µl reaction volume containing: 4 µM of Estradiol (E2; Cayman; #10006315), 6 mM NAD+ (Sigma; #N0623) and 30 nM HSD17B13 enzyme (in-house; E. coli expressed His-tagged, purified, soluble protein) in a reaction containing 1 M potassium phosphate buffer pH 7.4, with 0.5% vehicle (DMSO). Reactions were incubated for 2 hours at 26.5° C., and estradiol (E2) conversion to estrone (E1) was quantitated by LC-MS/MS based analyte detection for both E2 and E1 using LCMS grade reagents.Reactions were terminated by the addition of two volumes of acetonitrile (MeCN; LCMS grade; CAS# 75/05/8) containing deuterated (D4)-E1 used as internal standard (Clear Synth; #CS-T-54273; 500 ng/mL final concentration). Samples were applied to pre-prepared Bond Elut-C18 extraction cartridges (3 mL; Agilent; #12102028), washed and eluted in MeCN. Eluates were dried under nitrogen and re-suspended in 60% methanol (LCMS grade methanol; CAS# 67/56/1) before submission for analysis. Aqueous linearity for E2 and E1 were included for quantification. |
