NMDAR1 (Phospho-Ser896)Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit

The NMDAR1 Phospho-Ser896 Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit is a powerful tool for researchers looking to accurately detect and quantify levels of phosphorylated NMDAR1 (NR1) at Serine 896 in cell lysates. This kit offers high sensitivity and specificity, allowing for reliable and reproducible results in a wide range of experimental settings.Phosphorylation of NMDAR1 at Serine 896 is known to play a key role in regulating NMDA receptor function, which is essential for synaptic plasticity and excitotoxicity in the central nervous system. Dysregulation of NMDA receptors has been implicated in various neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, epilepsy, and stroke, making this kit an invaluable tool for studying these conditions and potential therapeutic interventions.

The NMDAR1 Phospho-Ser896 Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit is user-friendly and suitable for use with a variety of sample types, including cultured cells and tissue lysates. With its robust performance and ease of use, this kit is an essential resource for researchers seeking to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying NMDA receptor signaling and its implications for neurological health and disease.

The NMDAR1 (Phospho-Ser896) Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit is a convenient, lysate-free, high throughput and sensitive assay kit that can detect NMDAR1 protein phosphorylation and expression profile in cells. The kit can be used for measuring the relative amounts of phosphorylated NMDAR1 in cultured cells as well as screening for the effects that various treatments, inhibitors (ie. siRNA or chemicals), or activators have on NMDAR1 phosphorylation.

Qualitative determination of NMDAR1 (Phospho-Ser896) concentration is achieved by an indirect ELISA format. In essence, NMDAR1 (Phospho-Ser896) is captured by NMDAR1 (Phospho-Ser896)-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.

UniProt Protein Function:NMDAR1: a subunit of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, members of the glutamate receptor channel superfamily. Possesses high calcium permeability and voltage-dependent sensitivity to magnesium and is modulated by glycine. Plays a key role in synaptic plasticity, synaptogenesis, excitotoxicity, memory acquisition and learning. Mediates neuronal functions in glutamate neurotransmission. Three alternatively-spliced isoforms have been described.

NCBI Summary:The protein encoded by this gene is a critical subunit of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors, members of the glutamate receptor channel superfamily which are heteromeric protein complexes with multiple subunits arranged to form a ligand-gated ion channel. These subunits play a key role in the plasticity of synapses, which is believed to underlie memory and learning. Cell-specific factors are thought to control expression of different isoforms, possibly contributing to the functional diversity of the subunits. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
