MSK1 (Phospho-Ser376)Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit

The MSK1 Phospho-Ser376 Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit is a powerful tool for the accurate detection of phosphorylated MSK1 (Mitogen and Stress-Activated Protein Kinase 1) at Ser376 levels in cell lysates. This kit offers high sensitivity and specificity, providing reliable and reproducible results for a variety of research applications.MSK1 is a key kinase involved in cellular signaling pathways that regulate cell growth, proliferation, and survival. Phosphorylation of MSK1 at Ser376 is known to be critical for its activation and downstream functions. Dysregulation of MSK1 signaling has been implicated in various diseases, including cancer, inflammatory disorders, and neurodegenerative conditions, making it a valuable target for therapeutic interventions.

By using the MSK1 Phospho-Ser376 Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit, researchers can accurately quantify phosphorylated MSK1 levels in cell samples, allowing for a better understanding of its role in physiological and pathological processes. This kit is user-friendly and provides fast and reliable results, making it an essential tool for studying MSK1-mediated signaling pathways and identifying potential therapeutic targets.

The MSK1 (Phospho-Ser376) Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit is a convenient, lysate-free, high throughput and sensitive assay kit that can detect MSK1 protein phosphorylation and expression profile in cells. The kit can be used for measuring the relative amounts of phosphorylated MSK1 in cultured cells as well as screening for the effects that various treatments, inhibitors (ie. siRNA or chemicals), or activators have on MSK1 phosphorylation.

Qualitative determination of MSK1 (Phospho-Ser376) concentration is achieved by an indirect ELISA format. In essence, MSK1 (Phospho-Ser376) is captured by MSK1 (Phospho-Ser376)-specific primary (1ø) antibodies while the HRP-conjugated secondary (2ø) antibodies bind the Fc region of the 1ø antibody. Through this binding, the HRP enzyme conjugated to the 2ø 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.

StepProcedure
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.
3.Treat the cells as desired.
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.
