Human FASN (Fatty Acid Synthase) Microsample ELISA Kit

The test principle applied in this kit is Sandwich enzyme immunoassay. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to Human FASN. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Human FASN. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain Human FASN, biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm ± 10nm. The concentration of Human FASN in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.Detection Range: 0.32-20 ng/mL. Sensitivity: 0.109 ng/mL. Assay Type: Sandwich. Standard: 20 ng/mL. Sample Type: sserum, plasma, tissue homogenates and other biological fluids. Assay duration: 3.5h. Protein Function: Fatty acid synthetase is a multifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the de novo biosynthesis of long-chain saturated fatty acids starting from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA in the presence of NADPH. This multifunctional protein contains 7 catalytic activities and a site for the binding of the prosthetic group 4'-phosphopantetheine of the acyl carrier protein ([ACP]) domain , (Microbial infection) Fatty acid synthetase activity is required for SARS coronavirus-2/SARS-CoV-2 replication [The Uniprot Consortium]
