Principle of the Assay: REST ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing an anti-REST antibody and an REST-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with REST-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 REST concentration since REST from samples and REST-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-REST antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by REST from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind REST-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The REST concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene was initially identified as a transcriptional repressor that represses neuronal genes in non-neuronal tissues. However, depending on the cellular context, this gene can act as either an oncogene or a tumor suppressor. The encoded protein is a member of the Kruppel-type zinc finger transcription factor family. It represses transcription by binding a DNA sequence element called the neuron-restrictive silencer element. The protein is also found in undifferentiated neuronal progenitor cells and it is thought that this repressor may act as a master negative regulator of neurogenesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, May 2018]
Uniprot Description
Transcriptional repressor which binds neuron-restrictive silencer element (NRSE) and represses neuronal gene transcription in non-neuronal cells. Restricts the expression of neuronal genes by associating with two distinct corepressors, mSin3 and CoREST, which in turn recruit histone deacetylase to the promoters of REST-regulated genes. Mediates repression by recruiting the BHC complex at RE1/NRSE sites which acts by deacetylating and demethylating specific sites on histones, thereby acting as a chromatin modifier. Transcriptional repression by REST-CDYL via the recruitment of histone methyltransferase EHMT2 may be important in transformation suppression. Key repressor of gene expression in hypoxia; represses genes in hypoxia by direct binding to an RE1/NRSE site on their promoter regions (PubMed:27531581). Negatively regulates the expression of SRRM3 in breast cancer cell lines (PubMed:26053433). Represses the expression of SRRM4 in non-neural cells to prevent the activation of neural specific splicing events (). Acts as a regulator of osteoblast differentiation ().

Product Notes
The Bovine REST rest (Catalog #AAA7264054) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA7264054 ELISA Kit recognizes Bovine REST. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "RE1-Silencing Transcription Factor (REST), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
