Background

MAOA (Monoamine Oxidase A) is one of two neighboring mitochondrial enzyme family members which catalyze the oxidative deamination of amines, such as dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin. The other member is MAOB. Mutation of MAOA results in Brunner syndrome and maoa-related behavior disorders. MAOA has important functions in the metabolism of neuroactive and vasoactive amines in the central nervous system and peripheral tissues. MAOA preferentially oxidizes biogenic amines such as 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), norepinephrine and epinephrine.

Application Notes

Recombinant MAOA is suitable for use in the study of enzyme kinetics, inhibitor screening, and selectivity profiling.
Monoamine Oxidase Assay: 40 µM substrate was incubated with MAOA protein in reaction buffer for 1 hour at room temperature, then the product was incubated with Detection Reagent for 0.5 hour at temperature. The activity of MAOA was detected by Promega MAO-Glo Assay.
