NAD/NADH-Glo™ and NADP/NADPH-Glo™ Assays
NAD/NADH-Glo™ Assay and NADP/NADPH-Glo™ Assays
The NAD/NADH-Glo and NADP/NADPH-Glo Assays are bioluminescent, homogeneous, single-reagent-addition methods to rapidly detect NAD+ and NADH and NADP+ and NADPH levels in cells and enzymatic reactions. Current methods to detect nicotinamide adenine dinucleotides lack sensitivity and reproducibility and require sample manipulation and large numbers of cells for cell-based applications. The assay is easily adapted for inhibitor screening in high-throughput formats. The sensitivity and robustness of the assay chemistry allow fewer cells to be used to detect individual nucleotides directly in multiwell plates or analysis of enzymes with low activity or with low Km values.
Low nanomolar sensitivity allows direct in-well detection and minimizes the amount of cells or enzyme required

Assay Chemistry
In the presence of NADH, a reductase provided with the assay, reduces the proluciferin reductase substrate to form luciferin. Luciferin is quantified using Ultra-Glo™ Recombinant Luciferase, which is a component of the Luciferin Detection Reagent, and the light signal produced is proportional to the amount of NAD+ or NADH in the sample.
Assays are Specific and Selective
Specificity is imparted to the NAD/NADH-Glo™ and NADP/NADPH-Glo™ Assay reactions by including NAD or NADP Cycling Enzyme and NAD or NADP Cycling Substrate to selectively measure nonphosphorylated and phosphorylated nucleotides, respectively. Accessory protocols are provided to allow separate measurements of NAD+ and NADH or NADP+ and NADPH and calculation of the ratio of the oxidized and reduced forms.
NADH, NADPH, NAD+ and NADP+ were prepared and diluted to the indicated concentrations in phosphate-buffered saline.
The NAD/NADH-Glo™ Assay is selective for NAD+ and NADH
The NADP/NADPH-Glo™ Assay is selective for NADP+ and NADPH
Rapidly Assess Total, NAD(P)+ and NAD(P)H Changes Directly in Cells in Culture Wells
Detergent present in the reagent lyses cells, allowing detection of total cellular NAD+ and NADH or NADP+ and NADPH. For the NAD/NADH-Glo™ Assay, an accessory protocol is provided to allow separate measurements of NAD+ and NADH and calculation of the ratio of the oxidized and reduced forms. All reactions are performed directly in the sample wells.
Compatible with High-Throughput Systems
The simple add-and-read protocols are compatible with automated and high-throughput workflow, and the flexible chemistries adapt to 96-, 384- and 1,536-well plate formats and high-throughput systems. They yield Z′ values >0.7. Assays were performed using 8μl of the indicated concentration of NADH or NADPH with 8μl of the appropriate Luciferin Detection Reagent in 384-well plates. S/B = signal-to-background ratio.
