Human PIAS4(Protein Inhibitor of Activated STAT4) ELISA Kit

Functions as an E3-type small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) ligase, stabilizing the interaction between UBE2I and the substrate, and as a SUMO-tethering factor (PubMed:12511558, PubMed:12631292, PubMed:12727872, PubMed:15831457, PubMed:15976810, PubMed:22508508, PubMed:32832608). Mediates sumoylation of ALKBH5, AXIN1, CEBPA, KLF8, GATA2, PARK7, HERC2, MYB, TCF4 and RNF168 (PubMed:12223491, PubMed:12511558, PubMed:12631292, PubMed:12727872, PubMed:12750312, PubMed:15831457, PubMed:15976810, PubMed:16617055, PubMed:22508508, PubMed:34048572). Plays a crucial role as a transcriptional coregulation in various cellular pathways, including the STAT pathway, the p53/TP53 pathway, the Wnt pathway and the steroid hormone signaling pathway (PubMed:11388671). Involved in gene silencing (PubMed:11248056). In Wnt signaling, represses LEF1 and enhances TCF4 transcriptional activities through promoting their sumoylations (PubMed:12727872, PubMed:15831457). Enhances the sumoylation of MTA1 and may participate in its paralog-selective sumoylation (PubMed:21965678). Binds to AT-rich DNA sequences, known as matrix or scaffold attachment regions (MARs/SARs) (By similarity). Catalyzes conjugation of SUMO2 to KAT5 in response to DNA damage, facilitating repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) via homologous recombination (HR) (PubMed:32832608). Mediates sumoylation of PARP1 in response to PARP1 trapping to chromatin (PubMed:35013556). Mediates sumoylation of KLF8, repressiing KLF8 transcriptional activity and cell cycle progression into G(1) phase (PubMed:16617055). Sumoylates ALKBH5 downstream of MAPK8/JNK1 and MAPK9/JNK2 in response to reactive oxygen species (ROS), inhibiting ALKBH5 RNA demethylase activity (PubMed:34048572) Assay Type: Sandwich. Sensitivity: 0.098 ng/mL. Standard: 20 ng/mL. Detection range: 0.32-20 ng/mL. Sample type: serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids. Assay length: 3.5h. Research Field: Signal transduction,. Test principle: 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 PIAS4. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Human PIAS4. 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 PIAS4, 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 PIAS4 in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.
