Rat Menin (MEN1) 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: MEN1 encodes menin, a putative tumor suppressor associated with a syndrome known as multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1. In vitro studies have shown menin is localized to the nucleus, possesses two functional nuclear localization signals, and inhibits transcriptional activation by JunD, however, the function of this protein is not known. Two messages have been detected on northern blots but the larger message has not been characterized. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
displays conservation with the human and mouse homologs for amino acid residues that are mutated in human multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 [RGD, Feb 2006]
Uniprot Description
MEN1: Essential component of a MLL/SET1 histone methyltransferase (HMT) complex, a complex that specifically methylates 'Lys-4' of histone H3 (H3K4). Functions as a transcriptional regulator. Binds to the TERT promoter and represses telomerase expression. Plays a role in TGFB1-mediated inhibition of cell-proliferation, possibly regulating SMAD3 transcriptional activity. Represses JUND-mediated transcriptional activation on AP1 sites, as well as that mediated by NFKB subunit RELA. Positively regulates HOXC8 and HOXC6 gene expression. May be involved in normal hematopoiesis through the activation of HOXA9 expression. May be involved in DNA repair. Component of MLL-containing complexes (named MLL, ASCOM, MLL2/MLL3 or MLL3/MLL4 complex): at least composed ASH2L, RBBP5, DPY30, WDR5, one or several histone methyltransferases (MLL, MLL2, MLL3 and/or MLL4), and the facultative components MEN1, HCFC1, HCFC2, NCOA6, KDM6A, PAXIP1/PTIP and C16orf53/PA1. Interacts with POLR2A phosphorylated at 'Ser-5', but not with the unphosphorylated, nor 'Ser-2' phosphorylated POLR2A forms. Interacts with FANCD2 and DBF4. Interacts with JUND. Interacts with SMAD3, but not with SMAD2, nor SMAD4. Directly interacts with NFKB1, NFKB2 and RELA. Ubiquitous. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Rat MEN1 men1 (Catalog #AAA9712296) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9712296 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat MEN1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Menin (MEN1), 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
