Principle of the assay: human Survivin ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from mouse specific for Survivin has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards (E.coli,M1-D142) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for Survivin is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the human Survivin amount of sample captured in plate.
Background: Survivin (also termed API4) belongs to the family of genes known as inhibitors of apoptosis, and it has been implicated in both prevention of cell death and control of mitosis. Survivin is prominently expressed in transformed cell lines and in all the most common human cancers of lung, colon, pancreas, prostate and breast in vivo. It is also found in approximately 50% of high-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. Survivin encodes a deduced 142-amino acid protein and localizes on chromosome 17q25. The overexpression of it in cancer may overcome an apoptotic checkpoint and favour aberrant progression of transformed cells through mitosis. The standard product used in this kit is recombinant human Survivin with the molecular mass of 34 KDa.

NCBI Description

This gene is a member of the inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) gene family, which encode negative regulatory proteins that prevent apoptotic cell death. IAP family members usually contain multiple baculovirus IAP repeat (BIR) domains, but this gene encodes proteins with only a single BIR domain. The encoded proteins also lack a C-terminus RING finger domain. Gene expression is high during fetal development and in most tumors, yet low in adult tissues. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]

Uniprot Description

Survivin: an apoptosis inhibitor that is expressed during the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. Associates with the microtubules of the mitotic spindle and any disruption results in the loss of apoptosis activity. May play a role in neoplasia. Inhibitor of caspase-3 and caspase-7. Two splice variant isoforms have been described.
