Myc (Phospho-Ser62)Transcription Factor Activity Assay

This colorimetric ELISA kit from Assay Genie is designed for the detection and qualitative analysis of active “Myc (Phospho-Ser62)” transcription factors in nuclear or cell lysates. It is a DNA-binding ELISA kit listed for human and mouse reactivity.

The manufacturer lists an assay time of “4.5 hours” and colorimetric detection at “450 nm”. Storage is “4°C” for “6 months”. Myc is a proto-oncogenic transcription factor involved in cell proliferation, apoptosis and the development of human tumors, and it seems to activate growth-related genes. The manufacturer also states that phosphorylation at “Ser62” enhances MYC transcriptional activity and describes the assay as a tool for studying the impact of post-translational modifications on MYC function.
