Mouse Asparagine Synthetase (ASNS) ELISA Kit

The Assay Genie Mouse ASNS quantitation kit enables researchers to measure asparagine synthetase levels in mouse serum or plasma, as well as tissue homogenate preparations. ASNS catalyzes the ATP-dependent conversion of aspartate and glutamine to asparagine and glutamate, and its expression rises sharply when cells experience amino acid starvation, endoplasmic reticulum stress, or glucose deprivation via the GCN2-eIF2α-ATF4 pathway. Investigators studying tumor metabolism use this reagent to profile how cancer cells adapt to nutrient limitation, while leukemia researchers correlate ASNS expression with sensitivity to L-asparaginase chemotherapy. Each kit supplies 96 individual assays in a microplate format with all reagents needed for an absorbance-based readout, and it is intended for research use only. Refrigerate the kit components upon arrival to preserve antibody activity, and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles of prepared reagents.
