ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a solid phase helicase assay for identifying helicase inhibitors. The assay having a model helicase substrate adsorbed on a solid support, the model helicase substrate being an immobilized extended single-stranded nucleic acid polymer hybridized to a labeled helicase reaction product. The presence of the labeled helicase reaction product is detectable in solution on helicase activity. Also described is a method for measuring the helicase inhibiting ability of test substances thus, making the assay useful for identifying pharmaceutically important helicase inhibitors.
