New sensitive assay for phosphatidylserine decarboxylase based on the detection of CO2 from nonradiolabeled phosphatidylserine

A new rapid assay for phosphatidylserine decarboxylase, which is sensitive in the nanomolar range, is described. Synthesis of radiolabeled phosphatidylserine for use as a substrate is not required, since the assay, unlike previous ones, is based on the detection of CO2 liberated from unlabeled phosp...
