Product details:
Human NOTUM SimpleStep ELISA® kit is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of NOTUM protein in Serum, Cit Plasma, EDTA Plasma, Hep Plasma, Cell culture supernatant. Quantitate Human NOTUM with 20.375 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA
technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA
plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA
protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA
technology provides several benefits:
-Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
-High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
-Fully validated in biological samples
-96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips, available in 10-pack (10 x 96-well plates)
-Also available in a fully validated 384-well format.

NOTUM is a lipase-like enzyme that functions mechanically to remove lipid modifications specifically palmitoleate from the Wnt proteins. It is alternatively known as palmitoleoyl-protein carboxylesterase. The molecular mass of NOTUM is approximately 53 kDa. NOTUM is expressed mainly in tissues such as the liver kidneys and gut where it plays a role in regulating signaling pathways.
Biological function summary
NOTUM inhibits the Wnt signaling pathway by cleaving the lipid moiety attached to Wnt proteins making it inactive. NOTUM acts independently and is not part of larger protein complexes. This regulation of Wnt signaling is important for maintaining cellular processes such as cell proliferation differentiation and migration especially during development and tissue homeostasis.
Pathways
NOTUM primarily influences the Wnt signaling pathway. This pathway is significant for embryonic development and adult homeostasis. By inactivating Wnt proteins NOTUM indirectly affects other pathway components like β-catenin which is an important mediator in the Wnt pathway. NOTUM ensures the balance of Wnt signaling preventing overactivation that could lead to abnormal cell growth.
NOTUM's role in regulating Wnt signaling links it to conditions such as colorectal cancer and osteoporosis. In cancers overexpression of NOTUM can contribute to Wnt pathway dysregulation while its inhibition may present a therapeutic angle. In osteoporosis alterations in NOTUM activity can affect bone formation processes through its influence on Wnt-related proteins like LRP5/6. Understanding NOTUM's interactions in these diseases may provide insights into novel treatment strategies.
