Description
CDC25C (Phospho-Thr48) Cell-Based ELISA Kit
The CDC25C (Phospho-Thr48) Cell-Based ELISA Kit is a convenient, lysate- free, high throughput and sensitive assay kit that can monitor CDC25C phosphorylation and expression profile in cells. The kit can be used for measuring the relative amounts of phosphorylated CDC25C in cultured cells as well as screening for the effects that various treatments, inhibitors (ie. siRNA or chemicals), or activators have on CDC25C phosphorylation.
How does our CDC25C (Phospho-Thr48) Fluorometric Cell-Based ELISA Kit work?
Qualitative determination of CDC25C (Phospho-Thr48) concentration is achieved by an indirect ELISA format. In essence, CDC25C (Phospho-Thr48) is captured by CDC25C (Phospho-Thr48)-specific primary (1°) antibodies while Dye 1-conjugated and Dye 2-conjugated secondary (2°) antibodies bind the Fc region of the 1° antibody. Through this binding, the dye conjugated to the 2° antibody can emit light at a certain wavelength given proper excitation, hence allowing for a fluorometric detection method. Due to the qualitative nature of the Cell-Based ELISA, multiple normalization methods are needed:
| 1. | A monoclonal antibody specific for human GAPDH is included to serve as an internal positive control in normalizing the target RFU values. |
| 2. | An antibody against the nonphosphorylated counterpart of CDC25C (Phospho-Thr48) is also provided for normalization purposes. The RFU values obtained for non-phosphorylated CDC25C can be used to normalize the RFU value for phosphorylated CDC25C. |

Kit Protocol
This is a summarized version of the kit protocol. Please view the technical manual of this kit for information on sample preparation, reagent preparation and plate lay out.
| 1. | Seed 200 µl of desired cell concentration in culture medium into each well of the 96-well plates. For suspension cells and loosely attached cells, coat the plates with 100 µl of 10 µg/ml Poly-L-Lysine (not included) to each well of a 96-well plate for 30 minutes at 37°C prior to adding cells. |
| 2. | Incubate the cells for overnight at 37°C, 5% CO2. |
| 3. | Treat the cells as desired. |
| 4. | Remove the cell culture medium and rinse with 200 µl of 1x TBS, twice. |
| 5. | Fix the cells by incubating with 100 µl of Fixing Solution for 20 minutes at room temperature. The 4% formaldehyde is used for adherent cells and 8% formaldehyde is used for suspension cells and loosely attached cells. |
| 6. | Remove the Fixing Solution and wash the plate 3 times with 200 µl 1x Wash Buffer for 3 minutes. The plate can be stored at 4°C for a week. |
| 7. | Add 100 µl of Quenching Buffer and incubate for 20 minutes at room temperature. |
| 8. | Wash the plate 3 times with 1x Wash Buffer for 3 minutes each time. |
| 9. | Dispense 200 µl of Blocking Buffer and incubate for 1 hour at room temperature. |
| 10. | Wash 3 times with 200 µl of 1x Wash Buffer for 3 minutes each time. |

Add 50 µl of Primary Antibody Mixture NP to the corresponding wells for total CDC25C detection. Cover the plate with parafilm and incubate for 16 hours (overnight) at 4°C. If the target expression is known to be high, incubate for 2 hours at room temperature. |

CDC25C (Phospho-Thr48) - Protein Information
| UniProt Protein Function: | CDC25C: a member of the MPI phosphatase family. Activates the cyclin dependent kinase CDC2 by removing two phosphate groups and it is required for entry into mitosis. Shuttles between the nucleus and the cytoplasm due to nuclear localization and nuclear export signals. The protein is nuclear in the M and G1 phases of the cell cycle and moves to the cytoplasm during S and G2. CDC25B has oncogenic properties, although its role in tumor formation has not been determined. At least four transcript variants for this gene exist. Three splice variant isoforms have been described. |
| UniProt Protein Details: | Protein type:EC 3.1.3.48; Motility/polarity/chemotaxis; Protein phosphatase, dual-specificity Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 5q31 Cellular Component: cytosol; nucleoplasm; nucleus Molecular Function:phosphoprotein phosphatase activity; protein binding; protein kinase binding; WW domain binding Biological Process: cell proliferation; DNA damage response, signal transduction by p53 class mediator resulting in cell cycle arrest; DNA replication; G2/M transition of mitotic cell cycle; regulation of cell cycle; regulation of cyclin-dependent protein kinase activity; regulation of mitosis |
| NCBI Summary: | This gene encodes a conserved protein that plays a key role in the regulation of cell division. The encoded protein directs dephosphorylation of cyclin B-bound CDC2 and triggers entry into mitosis. It also suppresses p53-induced growth arrest. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015] |
