Human Activin A Receptor Type I (ACVR1) ELISA Kit

Due to the possibility of mismatching between antigens from other origin and antibodies used in our kits (e.g., antibody targets conformational epitope rather than linear epitope), some native or recombinant proteins from other manufacturers may not be recognized by our products.

Principle of the Assay

The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to ACVR1. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody preparation specific to ACVR1. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After the TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain ACVR1, biotin-conjugated antibody, and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution, and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm ± 10nm. The concentration of ACVR1 in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.

Target Information

Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) type I receptor that is involved in a wide variety of biological processes, including bone, heart, cartilage, nervous, and reproductive system development and regulation (PubMed:20628059, PubMed:22977237). As a type I receptor, forms heterotetrameric receptor complexes with the type II receptors AMHR2, ACVR2A or ACVR2B (PubMed:17911401). Upon binding of ligands such as BMP7 or GDF2/BMP9 to the heteromeric complexes, type II receptors transphosphorylate ACVR1 intracellular domain (PubMed:25354296). In turn, ACVR1 kinase domain is activated and subsequently phosphorylates SMAD1/5/8 proteins that transduce the signal (PubMed:9748228). In addition to its role in mediating BMP pathway-specific signaling, suppresses TGFbeta/activin pathway signaling by interfering with the binding of activin to its type II receptor (PubMed:17911401). Besides canonical SMAD signaling, can activate non-canonical pathways such as p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases/MAPKs (By similarity).

Performance Characteristics

REPEATABILITY

Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, middle, and high-level ACVR1 were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively.
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): 3 samples with low, middle, and high-level ACVR1 were tested on 3 different plates, with 8 replicates in each plate.
CV(%) = SD/meanX100

Intra-Assay: CV<10%
Inter-Assay: CV<12%

SENSITIVITY The minimum detectable dose was 0.063ng/mL.
ASSAY RANGE 0.156-10ng/mL
SPECIFICITY This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for the detection of ACVR1.
No significant cross-reactivity or interference between ACVR1 and analogs was observed.
Note:
Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible to perform all possible cross-reactivity detection tests between ACVR1 and all analogs, therefore, cross reactivity may still exist.
