NF-kB (p65) ELISA Kit

Rockland's NF-kB (p65) Transcription Factor Assay is a non-radioactive, sensitive method for detecting specific transcription factor DNA binding activity in nuclear extracts and whole cell lysates. A 96 well enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) replaces the cumbersome radioactive electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). A specific double stranded DNA (dsDNA) sequence containing the NF-kB response element is immobilized onto the bottom of wells of a 96 well plate (see Figure 1 on page 4). NF-kB contained in a nuclear extract specifically binds to the NF-kB response element. NF-kB (p65) is detected by addition of a specific primary antibody directed against NF-kB (p65). A secondary antibody conjugated to HRP is added to provide a sensitive colorimetric readout at 450 nm. Rockland's NF-kB (p65) Transcription Factor Assay detects human NF-kB (p65). It will not cross-react with NF-kB (p50).
