uniprot entry name :
FOS_HUMAN
specificity :
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of c-Fos. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between c-Fos and analogues was observed. NOTE: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible for us to complete the cross-reactivity detection between c-Fos 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: c-Fos ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a monoclonal anti-c-Fos antibody and an c-Fos-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with c-Fos-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 c-Fos concentration since c-Fos from samples and c-Fos-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-c-Fos antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by c-Fos from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind c-Fos-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The c-Fos concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.

ncbi summary :
The Fos gene family consists of 4 members: FOS, FOSB, FOSL1, and FOSL2. These genes encode leucine zipper proteins that can dimerize with proteins of the JUN family, thereby forming the transcription factor complex AP-1. As such, the FOS proteins have been implicated as regulators of cell proliferation, differentiation, and transformation. In some cases, expression of the FOS gene has also been associated with apoptotic cell death. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
uniprot summary :
Fos: a proto-oncogenic transcription factor of the bZIP family. Dimerizes with proteins of the JUN family, thereby forming the transcription factor complex AP-1. FOS proteins function as regulators of cell proliferation, differentiation, and transformation. In some cases, expression of FOS has also been associated with apoptotic cell death. Expression increases upon a variety of stimuli, including growth factors, cytokines, neurotransmitters, polypeptide hormones, stress and cell injury.
