製品の概要
c-Jun Transcription Factor Assay Kit (Colorimetric) (ab207195) is a high throughput assay to quantify AP-1 c-Jun activation in nuclear extracts. This assay combines a quick ELISA format with a sensitive and specific non-radioactive assay for transcription factor activation.
A specific double stranded DNA sequence containing the TPA-responsive element (TRE) (5´–TGAGTCA– 3´) has been immobilized onto a 96-well plate. AP1 present in the nuclear extract specifically binds to the oligonucleotide. AP1 family member c-Jun is detected by a primary antibody that recognizes an epitope of c-Jun accessible upon DNA binding. An HRP-conjugated secondary antibody provides sensitive colorimetric readout at OD 450 nm. This product detects only human and mouse c-Jun.
Key performance and benefits:
- Assay time: 3.5 hours (cell extracts preparation not included).
- Detection limit: < 1.25 µg nuclear extract/well.
- Detection range: 0.1 – 20 µg nuclear extract/well.

特記事項
The activator protein-1 (AP1) transcription factors belong to a large family of structurally related transcription factors that includes ATF1-4, c-Fos, c-Jun, c-Myc and C/EBP. The members of this family, named bZIP, share a dimerization domain with a leucine zipper motif and a DNA binding domain rich in basic residues (lysines and arginines). AP1 is composed of a mixture of heterodimeric complexes of proteins derived from the Fos and Jun families including c-Fos, FosB, Fra-1, Fra-2, c-Jun, JunB and JunD. Only Jun proteins can form transcriptionally active homodimers within AP1 members, or heterodimers with CREB/ATF members, to bind the CRE element (5´ - TGACGTCA - 3´). Primarily, AP1 dimers bind to DNA on a TPA-response element (TRE) with the 5´ - TGA(C/G)TCA - 3´ sequence. Jun-Fos heterodimers form more stable complexes with TREs. These complexes display stronger transactivating activity than Jun-Jun homodimers.
Phosphorylation of AP1 family members by kinases is required for transactivation activity. In the case of c-Jun, the activation domain is regulated to a large extent by the JNK family of MAP kinases. JNK kinases phosphorylate c-Jun at Ser-63, resulting in the binding of c-Jun to the CBP/p300 family of transcriptional co-activators.
AP1 expression is induced by multiple stimuli such as serum, growth factors, phorbol esters and oncogenes. These include peptide growth factors, cytokines of the TGF beta, TNF, and interferon families, neuronal depolarization and cellular stress. Upon serum starvation of human fibroblast cells, Fos and Jun protein production can be induced for up to 4 hours by adding serum. Interestingly, serum starvation lowers basal expression of FosB and c-Fos but has no significant effect on c-Jun.
AP1 proteins play a role in the expression of many genes involved in proliferation and cell cycle progression including neuronal apoptosis, learning process, drug-induced behavorial responses, bone growth and differentiation, and embryo development. For instance, cell transformation by oncogenes that function in the growth factor signal transduction pathway, such as ras, rasF and mek, results in a high increase in AP1 component protein expression. Therefore, AP1-regulated genes support the invasive process observed during malignancy and metastasis.

Ubiquitinated by the SCF(FBXW7), leading to its degradation. Ubiquitination takes place following phosphorylation, that promotes interaction with FBXW7.
Phosphorylated by CaMK4 and PRKDC; phosphorylation enhances the transcriptional activity. Phosphorylated by HIPK3. Phosphorylated by DYRK2 at Ser-243; this primes the protein for subsequent phosphorylation by GSK3B at Thr-239. Phosphorylated at Thr-239, Ser-243 and Ser-249 by GSK3B; phosphorylation reduces its ability to bind DNA. Phosphorylated by PAK2 at Thr-2, Thr-8, Thr-89, Thr-93 and Thr-286 thereby promoting JUN-mediated cell proliferation and transformation. Phosphorylated by PLK3 following hypoxia or UV irradiation, leading to increase DNA-binding activity.
Acetylated at Lys-271 by EP300. -
