AlphaLISA Assays
AlphaLISA technology is a powerful and versatile platform that offers
highly sensitive, no-wash immunoassays using Alpha Streptavidin Donor
and AlphaLISA Acceptor beads. In this technical note, we present the
optimization of a signal decrease SIRT1 assay using as substrate a
biotinylated p53-derived peptide acetylated at lysine 382. In the
absence of enzyme or cofactor, the anti-p53K382ac Acceptor beads
bind the acetylated residue on the peptide. Upon laser irradiation of
the beads-target complexes at 680 nm, short-lived singlet oxygen
molecules produced by the Donor beads can reach the Acceptor
beads in proximity to generate maximal AlphaLISA signal at 615 nm
(left panel). When enzyme and cofactor are added to the reaction, the
peptide substrate is deacetylated and the anti-p53K382ac Acceptor
beads do not recognize the biotinylated peptide anymore, leading to
a signal decrease (right panel). This signal decrease is proportional to
the deacetylation activity of the SIRT1 enzyme.
This AlphaLISA immunodetection assay measures the deacetylation
of a biotinylated p53 (368-393) peptide acetylated at lysine 382.

Standard Protocol
• Dilute SIRT1 enzyme, inhibitors, biotinylated p53K382ac peptide substrate
and NAD+ in Assay Buffer just before use.
• Add to the wells of a white OptiPlate-384:
– 2.5 μL of enzyme (4X)
– 2.5 μL of inhibitor (4X) or Assay buffer
– Incubate 5 min at RT
– 2.5 μL of biotinylated p53K382ac peptide substrate (4X)
– 2.5 µL of NAD+ (4X)
• Cover the plate with TopSeal-A film and incubate at room temperature (RT).
• Prepare 1X Epigenetics Buffer 1 as recommended in the buffer technical
data sheet.
• Prepare a 5X Stop Solution Mix containing 250 µM of EX-527 and 100 μg/mL
of Acceptor Beads in 1X Epigenetics Buffer 1 (final concentration of 50 µM
EX-527 and 20 μg/mL Acceptor Beads in 25 μL total assay volume).
– 5 μL of Stop Solution Mix
• Cover with TopSeal-A film and incubate for 60 min at RT.
• Prepare a 2.5X Streptavidin Donor beads solution at 50 μg/mL in 1X
Epigenetics Buffer 1 (final concentration of 20 μg/mL in 25 μL total assay
volume) in subdued light.
– 10 μL of Streptavidin Donor beads
• Cover with TopSeal-A film and incubate in subdued light for 30 min at RT.
• Read signal in Alpha mode with the EnVision® or EnSpire® reader.

Serial dilutions of NAD+ ranging from 300 nM to 12.5 mM were added to 0.5 nM
SIRT1 and 3 nM biotinylated p53K382ac peptide substrate. Enzymatic reactions
were incubated for 30 min. A 200 µM NAD+ concentration was selected for
subsequent experiments.

Serial dilutions of inhibitors ranging from 1 nM to 100 µM (EX-527), 3 nM to 100 µM
(SIRT1 Inhibitor III), 10 nM to 10 µM (suramin) and 300 nM to 3 mM (nicotinamide) were pre-incubated for 5 min with 0.5 nM of SIRT1. Enzymatic reactions were
initiated by the addition of 3 nM biotinylated p53K382ac peptide substrate and 200

Enzymatic progress curves were performed by incubating SIRT1 at concentrations ranging from 0.25 to 5 nM with 3 nM biotinylated p53K382ac peptide
substrate and 2 mM NAD+. A mix of Acceptor beads and EX-527 was added to
