Human OXSR1 (Oxidative-Stress Responsive 1) 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 OXSR1. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Human OXSR1. 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 OXSR1, 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 OXSR1 in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve. Protein Function: Effector serine/threonine-protein kinase component of the WNK-SPAK/OSR1 kinase cascade, which is involved in various processes, such as ion transport, response to hypertonic stress and blood pressure (PubMed:16669787, PubMed:18270262, PubMed:21321328, PubMed:34289367). Specifically recognizes and binds proteins with a RFXV motif (PubMed:16669787, PubMed:17721439, PubMed:21321328). Acts downstream of WNK kinases (WNK1, WNK2, WNK3 or WNK4): following activation by WNK kinases, catalyzes phosphorylation of ion cotransporters, such as SLC12A1/NKCC2, SLC12A2/NKCC1, SLC12A3/NCC, SLC12A5/KCC2 or SLC12A6/KCC3, regulating their activity (PubMed:17721439). Mediates regulatory volume increase in response to hyperosmotic stress by catalyzing phosphorylation of ion cotransporters SLC12A1/NKCC2, SLC12A2/NKCC1 and SLC12A6/KCC3 downstream of WNK1 and WNK3 kinases (PubMed:16669787, PubMed:21321328). Phosphorylation of Na-K-Cl cotransporters SLC12A2/NKCC1 and SLC12A2/NKCC1 promote their activation and ion influx, simultaneously, phosphorylation of K-Cl cotransporters SLC12A5/KCC2 and SLC12A6/KCC3 inhibit their activity, blocking ion efflux (PubMed:16669787, PubMed:19665974, PubMed:21321328). Acts as a regulator of NaCl reabsorption in the distal nephron by mediating phosphorylation and activation of the thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl cotransporter SLC12A3/NCC in distal convoluted tubule cells of kidney downstream of WNK4 (PubMed:18270262). Also acts as a regulator of angiogenesis in endothelial cells downstream of WNK1 (PubMed:23386621, PubMed:25362046). Acts as an activator of inward rectifier potassium channels KCNJ2/Kir2.1 and KCNJ4/Kir2.3 downstream of WNK1: recognizes and binds the RXFXV/I variant motif on KCNJ2/Kir2.1 and KCNJ4/Kir2.3 and regulates their localization to the cell membrane without mediating their phosphorylation (PubMed:29581290). Phosphorylates RELL1, RELL2 and RELT (PubMed:16389068, PubMed:28688764). Phosphorylates PAK1 (PubMed:14707132). Phosphorylates PLSCR1 in the presence of RELT (PubMed:22052202) [The Uniprot Consortium]
