ACK1 Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit
The ACK1 Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit is specifically designed for the accurate detection of ACK1 levels in cell lysates and tissue homogenates. This kit offers high sensitivity and specificity, providing reliable and reproducible results for various research applications.ACK1, also known as Tyrosine-protein kinase TNK2, plays a vital role in cell signaling pathways, particularly those involved in cell growth, survival, and migration. Dysregulation of ACK1 has been implicated in various diseases, including cancer and neurodegenerative disorders, making it a valuable target for studying disease mechanisms and potential therapeutic interventions.
With its easy-to-use protocol and reliable performance, the ACK1 Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit is an essential tool for researchers seeking to investigate the molecular mechanisms involving ACK1 and its potential implications in disease progression.

The ACK1 Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit is a convenient, lysate-free, high throughput and sensitive assay kit that can detect ACK1 protein expression profile in cells. The kit can be used for measuring the relative amounts of ACK1 in cultured cells as well as screening for the effects that various treatments, inhibitors (ie siRNA or chemicals), or activators have on ACK1.
Qualitative determination of ACK1 concentration is achieved by an indirect ELISA format. In essence, ACK1 is captured by ACK1-specific primary antibodies while the HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies bind the Fc region of the primary antibody. Through this binding, the HRP enzyme conjugated to the secondary antibody can catalyze a colorimetric reaction upon substrate addition. Due to the qualitative nature of the Cell-Based ELISA, multiple normalization methods are needed:
1. | A monoclonal antibody specific for human GAPDH is included to serve as an internal positive control in normalizing the target absorbance values. |
2. | Following the colorimetric measurement of HRP activity via substrate addition, the Crystal Violet whole-cell staining method may be used to determine cell density. After staining, the results can be analysed by normalizing the absorbance values to cell amounts, by which the plating difference can be adjusted. |

UniProt Protein Function: | Ack: a tyrosine kinase that binds Cdc42 in its GTP-bound form and inhibits both the intrinsic and GTPase-activating protein (GAP)-stimulated GTPase activity of Cdc42. This binding is mediated by a unique sequence of 47 amino acids C-terminal to an SH3 domain. May be involved in a regulatory mechanism that sustains the GTP-bound active form of Cdc42 and which is directly linked to a tyrosine phosphorylation signal transduction pathway. Amplification in primary tumors correlates with metastatic potential. Two differentially spliced isoforms have been described. |

NCBI Summary: | This gene encodes a tyrosine kinase that binds Cdc42Hs in its GTP-bound form and inhibits both the intrinsic and GTPase-activating protein (GAP)-stimulated GTPase activity of Cdc42Hs. This binding is mediated by a unique sequence of 47 amino acids C-terminal to an SH3 domain. The protein may be involved in a regulatory mechanism that sustains the GTP-bound active form of Cdc42Hs and which is directly linked to a tyrosine phosphorylation signal transduction pathway. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified from this gene, but the full-length nature of only two transcript variants has been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |

Step | Procedure |
1. | Seed 200 µL of 20,000 adherent cells in culture medium in each well of a 96-well plate. The plates included in the kit are sterile and treated for cell culture. For suspension cells and loosely attached cells, coat the plates with 100 µL of 10 µg/ml Poly-L-Lysine (not included) to each well of a 96-well plate for 30 minutes at 37°C prior to adding cells. |
2. | Incubate the cells for overnight at 37°C, 5% CO2. |

4. | Remove the cell culture medium and rinse with 200 µL of 1x TBS, twice. |
5. | Fix the cells by incubating with 100 µL of Fixing Solution for 20 minutes at room temperature. The 4% formaldehyde is used for adherent cells and 8% formaldehyde is used for suspension cells and loosely attached cells. |
6. | Remove the Fixing Solution and wash the plate 3 times with 200 µL 1x Wash Buffer for five minutes each time with gentle shaking on the orbital shaker. The plate can be stored at 4°C for a week. |
