Mouse Maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase (Melk) ELISA Kit

Quantify Maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase (MELK) in mouse specimens with this Assay Genie in vitro immunoassay kit, supplied in a 96-assay microplate format. MELK is a serine/threonine kinase implicated in mitotic spindle assembly, embryonic stem cell self-renewal, and the maintenance of tumor-initiating cell populations in glioblastoma, triple-negative breast cancer, and acute myeloid leukemia models. The assay delivers a quantitative colorimetric readout, validated for research use only and intended for batch screening of mouse-derived sample matrices including serum-type specimens, plasma-type specimens, and clarified tissue homogenate fractions.

Reagents ship refrigerated and should be stored at 4 °C upon arrival; allow kit components to equilibrate to room temperature before processing. Mouse-specific capture reagents limit cross-reactivity with human or rat MELK orthologs, supporting clean interpretation in xenograft-adjacent workflows and syngeneic mouse tumor studies. The 96-reaction configuration fits standard plate readers and aligns with throughput needs for stem cell, developmental biology, and translational cancer research programs.
