title: Transamidating activities of factor XIIIa and of transglutaminases, measured by an ELISA procedure.
abstract: The dansyl hapten in dansylcadaverine offers unique possibilities for measuring the incorporation of the monoamine into proteins (e.g. N,N'-dimethylcasein) by transamidating enzymes such as factor XIIIa and the transglutaminases. The protein-bound dansylcadaverine was assayed by an ELISA procedure based on a monoclonal antibody to the dansyl moiety.
