STC1 ELISA Kit (Human) (OKBB00964)

Description of target: Stanniocalcin-1 is a glycoprotein which is encoded by the STC1 gene. This gene encodes a secreted, homodimeric glycoprotein that is expressed in a wide variety of tissues and may have autocrine or paracrine functions. Human Stanniocalcin-1 is a putative molecular biomarker of leukemic microenvironment and the only molecular function known up to date is a SUMO E3 ligase activity in the SUMOylation cycle. STC1 interacts with lots of proteins in the cytoplasm, mitochondria, endoplasmatic reticulum and dot-like fashion in the nucleus. The N-terminal region of STC1 is the function region which is responsible to establish the interaction with its partners, including SUMO1. Low resolution studies shows that STC1 is an anti-parallel homodimer in solution and the cystein 202 is responsible for the dimerization of this protein. All the 5 dissulfide bonds of human STC1 are conserved and have the same profile of fish STC.;Species reactivity: Human;Application: ELISA;Assay info: ;Sensitivity: <10pg/ml
