Revvity, ALSU-TIKARO-A10K, AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra Human and Mouse Total IKAROS Detection Kit, 10,000 Assay Points

Overview
Ikaros, or IKZF1, is a transcription factor and a member of the Krüppel family, also known as the Ikaros family zinc finger protein family (IKZF). Ikaros displays crucial functions in the hematopoietic system and is a known regulator of immune cell development. Ikaros can also directly initiate or suppress tumor suppressors or oncogenes, consequently regulating the survival and proliferation of cancer cells. Mutations or deficiencies associated with Ikaros are linked to numerous cancers, including pediatric B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia, multiple myeloma, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, mantle cell lymphoma, lung cancer, and ovarian cancer.
The AlphaLISA SureFire Human and Mouse Total Ikaros Detection Kit is a sandwich immunoassay for the quantitative detection of total Ikaros in cellular lysates, using Alpha Technology.

How it works
Total-AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra assay principle

The Total-AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra assay measures the expression level of a protein target in a cell lysate.

The Total-AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra assay uses two antibodies which recognize two different distal epitopes 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 targeted 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 protein present in the sample.

 

Total-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 Total-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.

Total-AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra one-plate assay protocol

Detection of Total 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.
