With a leucine Zipper domain (bZIP), ATF4 facilitates interactions with numerous proteins, acting as dimerization partners. Its multifaceted role extends across various tissues, significantly impacting obesity, glucose homeostasis, energy expenditure, and neural plasticity regulation.\u003cbr\u003e\nAs a stress-induced bZIP transcription factor, ATF4 binds to the cAMP response element, marking its involvement in the ISR, which encompasses responses to amino acid and glucose depletion, ER stress, and oxidative stress. This response entails the phosphorylation of eIF2alpha by various kinases, leading to global mRNA translation attenuation and ATF4 translation upregulation. Depending on post-translational modifications and binding partners, ATF4 can either promote pro-survival or apoptosis.\u003cbr\u003e\nAdditionally, ATF4's stability is subject to regulation through polyubiquitinylation, which mediates its proteasomal degradation.\u003cbr\u003e\nHow it works\u003cbr\u003e\nTotal ATF4 assay principle\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Total ATF4 assay quantifies the expression level of ATF4 in a cell lysate. Unlike Western Blot, the assay is entirely plate-based and does not require gels, electrophoresis, or transfer. The Total ATF4 assay uses two labeled antibodies, one coupled to a donor fluorophore and the other to an acceptor. Both antibodies are highly specific for a distinct epitope on the protein. In the presence of ATF4 in a cell extract, the addition of these conjugates brings the donor fluorophore into close proximity with the acceptor and thereby generates a FRET signal. Its intensity is directly proportional to the concentration of the protein present in the sample, and provides a means of assessing the protein's expression under a no-wash assay format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n        \n\n\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n        \u003cbr\u003e\n  \n\n      \u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n      \u003cbr\u003e\n        \u003cbr\u003e\n        \u003cbr\u003e\n        \u003cbr\u003e\n        \u003cbr\u003e\n      \u003cbr\u003e\n    \n\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n      \n\n      \u003cbr\u003e\n        \n\n      \u003cbr\u003e\n    \n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eTotal ATF4 two-plate assay protocol\u003cbr\u003e\nThe two-plate protocol involves culturing cells in a 96-well plate before lysis, then transferring lysates into a 384-well low volume detection plate before the addition of HTRF Total ATF4 detection reagents.
