Introduction
|
Ubiquitin is a post translational modification to biomolecules targeted to degradation: Attachment of polyubiquitin to a protein targets the protein for degradation in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. The addition of ubiquitin can also code for changes in cellular locatization, activity or modulate protein interactions. Ubiquitination is controlled in three main steps; activation, conjugation and ligation, which are performed by ubiquitin-activating enzymes (E1s), ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes (E2s) and ubiquitin ligases (E3s), respectively. The result of this sequential cascade is the conjugation of ubiquitin to lysine residues via an isopeptide bond or to the amino group of the protein's N-terminus via a peptide bond. Ubiquitinated protiens can be transmembrane, cytosolic or nuclear.
Isolating ubiquin-conjugated proteins for ELISA Assay
Ubiquitinated proteins are located in the cell membrane, in the cytosol and in the nucleus. Cell lysis in a non-denaturing buffer is the general procedure employed to access proteins in these cellular compartments. The Fivephoton Biochemicals ELISA Protein Lysis Buffer (Part ELSP-1) is applicable toward isolating a total cellular pool of ubiquitinated proteins for ELISA, while the Fivephoton Biochemicals Nuclear-Cytoplasmic Fractionation Kit (Part NPI-1) can be employed to fractionate cytosolic and nuclear pools of CSF, serum and plasma.
Methods Overview
The included ELISA micro-strip plate is provided pre-coated with an a monoclonal capture antibody selective to the antigen. Samples are pre-mixed with a biotin-linked detection antibody and streptavidin-HRP, which are then added to the plate for 60 min. The plate is washed after the 60 min incubation period. Color reagents are added, resulting in a reaction with HRP that yields a blue colored solution. A stop solution is applied to terminate the reaction, and the solution is measured at 450n
