Revvity, ALSU-PASYN-B10K, AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra Human and Mouse Phospho-α-synuclein (Ser129) Detection Kit, 10,000 Assay Points

Overview
α-Synuclein is a neuronal protein encoded by the SNCA gene that regulates synaptic vesicle trafficking and subsequent neurotransmitter release. α-Synuclein is a prominent component of intracellular fibrillary aggregates in the brains of patients suffering from synucleinopathies. This protein represents a key molecular hallmark for Parkinson’s disease, dementia with Lewy bodies, or multiple system atrophy. The extensive phosphorylation of α-Synuclein on Ser129 is also associated with a pathological event.
The AlphaLISA SureFire Human and Mouse Phospho-α-Synuclein (Ser129) Detection Kit is a sandwich immunoassay for the quantitative detection of phosphorylated alpha synuclein in cellular lysates, using Alpha Technology.

How it works
Phospho-AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra assay principle

The Phospho-AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra assay measures a protein target when phosphorylated at a specific residue.

The assay uses two antibodies which recognize the phospho epitope and a distal epitope on the targeted protein. AlphaLISA assays require two bead types: Acceptor and Donor beads. Acceptor beads are coated with a proprietary CaptSure™ agent to specifically immobilize the assay specific antibody, labeled with a CaptSure tag. Donor beads are coated with streptavidin to capture one of the detection antibodies, which is biotinylated. In the presence of phosphorylated protein, the two antibodies bring the Donor and Acceptor beads in close proximity whereby the singlet oxygen transfers energy to excite the Acceptor bead, allowing the generation of a luminescent Alpha signal. The amount of light emission is directly proportional to the quantity of phosphoprotein present in the sample.

 

Phospho-AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra two-plate assay protocol

The two-plate protocol involves culturing and treating the cells in a 96-well plate before lysis, then transferring lysates into a 384-well OptiPlate™ plate before the addition of Phospho-AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra detection reagents. This protocol permits the cells viability and confluence to be monitored. In addition, lysates from a single well can be used to measure multiple targets.

Phospho-AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra one-plate assay protocol

Detection of Phosphorylated target protein with AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra reagents can be performed in a single plate used for culturing, treatment, and lysis. No washing steps are required. This HTS designed protocol allows for miniaturization while maintaining AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra quality.
