Human Tankyrase 1 (TNKS1) ELISA Kit

Principle of the Assay

The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to TNKS1. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody preparation specific to TNKS1. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After the TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain TNKS1, biotin-conjugated antibody, and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution, and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm ± 10nm. The concentration of TNKS1 in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.

For Use with serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Target Information

Poly-ADP-ribosyltransferase involved in various processes such as Wnt signaling pathway, telomere length and vesicle trafficking (PubMed:10988299, PubMed:11739745, PubMed:16076287, PubMed:19759537, PubMed:21478859, PubMed:22864114, PubMed:23622245, PubMed:25043379). Acts as an activator of the Wnt signaling pathway by mediating poly-ADP-ribosylation (PARsylation) of AXIN1 and AXIN2, 2 key components of the beta-catenin destruction complex: poly-ADP-ribosylated target proteins are recognized by RNF146, which mediates their ubiquitination and subsequent degradation (PubMed:19759537, PubMed:21478859). Also mediates PARsylation of BLZF1 and CASC3, followed by recruitment of RNF146 and subsequent ubiquitination (PubMed:21478859). Mediates PARsylation of TERF1, thereby contributing to the regulation of telomere length (PubMed:11739745). Involved in centrosome maturation during prometaphase by mediating PARsylation of HEPACAM2/MIKI (PubMed:22864114). May also regulate vesicle trafficking and modulate the subcellular distribution of SLC2A4/GLUT4-vesicles (PubMed:10988299). May be involved in spindle pole assembly through PARsylation of NUMA1 (PubMed:16076287). Stimulates 26S proteasome activity (PubMed:23622245).

Performance Characteristics

REPEATABILITY	Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, middle, and high-level TNKS1 were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively. Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): 3 samples with low, middle, and high-level TNKS1 were tested on 3 different plates, with 8 replicates in each plate. CV(%) = SD/meanX100 Intra-Assay: CV<10% Inter-Assay: CV<12%
SENSITIVITY	The minimum detectable dose was 0.106ng/mL.
ASSAY RANGE	0.312-20ng/mL
SPECIFICITY	This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for the detection of TNKS1. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between TNKS1 and analogs was observed. Note: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible to perform all possible cross-reactivity detection tests between TNKS1 and all analogs, therefore, cross reactivity may still exist.
