Product details:
The Mouse FAS Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) kit (ab213862) is designed for the quantitative detection of Mouse FAS in cell culture supernatants, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA, citrate).
The ELISA kit is based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from rat specific for FAS has been pre-coated onto 96-well plates. Standards (Expression system for standard: sf21; Immunogen sequence: Q22-R169) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for FAS is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the Mouse FAS amount of sample captured in plate.
FAS, also known as APO-1, CD95 and TNFRSF6, is a member of the nerve growth factor (NGF)/tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor superfamily and mediates apoptosis. The nucleotide sequence of the cDNAs reveals that the molecule coding for the Fas antigen determinant is a 319 amino acid polypeptide with a single transmembrane domain. The extracellular domain is rich in cysteine residue, and shows a similarity to that of human tumor necrosis factor receptors, human nerve growth factor receptor, and human B cell antigen CD40. The APO-1 antigen as defined by the mouse monoclonal antibody anti-APO-1 is previously found to be expressed on the cell surface of activated human T and B lymphocytes and a variety of malignant human lymphoid cell lines. The APO-1 antigen is found to be a membrane glycoprotein of 48-kDa. Fas antigen is expressed and functional on papillary thyroid cancer cells and this may have potential therapeutic significance. Fas can play a role as an inducer of both neurite growth in vitro and accelerates recovery after nerve injury
