Human Microcephalin (MCPH1) ELISA Kit
* Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.
* Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.
* Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 degree C in the sealed bag provided.
* Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.
* It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.
Background: MCPH1 encodes a DNA damage response protein. Microcephalin may play a role in G2/M checkpoint arrest via maintenance of inhibitory phosphorylation of cyclin-dependent kinase 1. Mutations in MCPH1 have been associated with primary autosomal recessive microcephaly 1 and premature chromosome condensation syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a DNA damage response protein. The encoded protein may play a role in G2/M checkpoint arrest via maintenance of inhibitory phosphorylation of cyclin-dependent kinase 1. Mutations in this gene have been associated with primary autosomal recessive microcephaly 1 and premature chromosome condensation syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]
Uniprot Description
MCPH1: a DNA damage responsive protein and transcriptional repressor of human telomere reverse transcriptase. An early responder to DNA damage. Required for double strand break repair via homologous recombination and nonhomologous end joining. Promotes chromatin relaxation by recruiting and maintaining the chromatin remodeling SWI-SNF complex at sites of DNA double strand breakage. Participates in the ATR/Chk1-mediated DNA checkpoint in humans and transcriptionally regulates BRCA1 and Chk1. Plays a role in neurogenesis and regulation of the size of the cerebral cortex. Mutations of MCPH1 can cause microcephaly in humans and appears to play an evolutionarily conserved role in brain development. Alterations have been identified in breast, ovarian and prostate cancer. Appears to coordinate S-M transitions in fly embryos.

Product Notes
The Human MCPH1 mcph1 (Catalog #AAA9715353) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9715353 ELISA Kit recognizes Human MCPH1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Microcephalin (MCPH1), 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
