uniprot entry name :
CFLAR_HUMAN
specificity :
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of CFLAR. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between CFLAR and analogues was observed. NOTE: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible for us to complete the cross-reactivity detection between CFLAR and all the analogues, therefore, cross reaction may still exist in some cases.
storage stability :
Store all reagents at 2-8 degree C.
other info1 :
Samples: Serum, plasma, Cell Culture Supernatants, body fluid and tissue homogenate. Assay Type: Competitive. Sensitivity: 0.1 ng/mL.
other info2 :

products description :
Principle of the assay: CFLAR ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a monoclonal anti-CFLAR antibody and an CFLAR-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with CFLAR-HRP conjugate in pre-coated plate for one hour. After the incubation period, the wells are decanted and washed five times. The wells are then incubated with a substrate for HRP enzyme. The product of the enzyme-substrate reaction forms a blue colored complex. Finally, a stop solution is added to stop the reaction, which will then turn the solution yellow. The intensity of color is measured spectrophotometrically at 450nm in a microplate reader. The intensity of the color is inversely proportional to the CFLAR concentration since CFLAR from samples and CFLAR-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-CFLAR antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by CFLAR from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind CFLAR-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The CFLAR concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.

ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a regulator of apoptosis and is structurally similar to caspase-8. However, the encoded protein lacks caspase activity and appears to be itself cleaved into two peptides by caspase-8. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, and partial evidence for several more variants exists. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]
uniprot summary :
CFLAR: Apoptosis regulator protein which may function as a crucial link between cell survival and cell death pathways in mammalian cells. Acts as an inhibitor of TNFRSF6 mediated apoptosis. A proteolytic fragment (p43) is likely retained in the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) thereby blocking further recruitment and processing of caspase-8 at the complex. Full length and shorter isoforms have been shown either to induce apoptosis or to reduce TNFRSF-triggered apoptosis. Lacks enzymatic (caspase) activity. TNFRSF6 stimulation triggers recruitment to the death- inducing signaling complex (DISC) formed by TNFRSF6, FADD and caspase-8. A proteolytic fragment (p43) stays associated with the DISC. Also interacts with caspase-10, caspase-3, TRAF1, TRAF2 and Bcl-X(L) (in vitro). Interacts with HBV protein X. Repressed by IL2/interleukin-2 after TCR stimulation, during progression to the S phase of the cell cycle. Widely expressed. Higher expression in skeletal muscle, pancreas, heart, kidney, placenta, and peripheral blood leukocytes. Also detected in diverse cell lines. Isoform 8 is predominantly expressed in testis and skeletal muscle. Belongs to the peptidase C14A family. 14 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Apoptosis. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 2q33-q34. Cellular Component: cytoplasm; CD95 death-inducing signaling complex; cytosol; lipid raft. Molecular Function: protein binding; protease binding; cysteine-type endopeptidase activity; death receptor binding; enzyme activator activity; protein complex binding. Biological Process: caspase activation; skeletal muscle development; skeletal muscle atrophy; skeletal myofibril assembly; positive regulation of I-kappaB kinase/NF-kappaB cascade; viral reproduction; apoptosis; skeletal muscle regeneration; regulation of satellite cell proliferation; proteolysis; activation of NF-kappaB transcription factor; negative regulation of apoptosis
