Abstract:
Zymographical methods (activity gel, overlay gel, activity blot and activity blotting) for detecting DNA-modifying (repair) enzymes are reviewed. Emphasis is put on the novel activity blotting method in which DNA repair enzymes electrophoresed on a gel are blotted and detected on a damaged DNA-fixed nylon membrane. Its practical procedures, including a non-radioactive detection procedure, and representative results are also described.
