Principle of the Assay: This kit is an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). The plate has been pre-coated with Cat TK1 antibody. TK1 present in the sample is added and binds to antibodies coated on the wells. And then biotinylated Cat TK1 Antibody is added and binds to TK1 in the sample. Then Streptavidin-HRP is added and binds to the Biotinylated TK1 antibody. After incubation unbound Streptavidin-HRP is washed away during a washing step. Substrate solution is then added and color develops in proportion to the amount of Cat TK1. The reaction is terminated by addition of acidic stop solution and absorbance is measured at 450 nm.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the addition of a gamma-phosphate group to thymidine. This creates dTMP and is the first step in the biosynthesis of dTTP, which is one component required for DNA replication. The encoded protein, whose levels fluctuate depending on the cell cycle stage, can act as a low activity dimer or a high activity tetramer. High levels of this protein have been used as a biomarker for diagnosing and categorizing many types of cancers. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]

Product Notes
The Cat TK1 (Catalog #AAA1603379) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA1603379 ELISA Kit recognizes Cat TK1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Thymidine Kinase 1, Soluble, 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
