Product overview
Mouse eNOS ELISA Kit (ab230938) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of eNOS protein in tissue extracts, mouse brain extract, mouse muscle extract, and cell culture extracts. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Mouse eNOS with 5.58 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:
- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
- Fully validated in biological samples
- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells stripsA 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Research areas
-
Function
Produces nitric oxide (NO) which is implicated in vascular smooth muscle relaxation through a cGMP-mediated signal transduction pathway. NO mediates vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced angiogenesis in coronary vessels and promotes blood clotting through the activation of platelets.
Isoform eNOS13C: Lacks eNOS activity, dominant-negative form that may down-regulate eNOS activity by forming heterodimers with isoform 1. -
Tissue specificity
Platelets, placenta, liver and kidney. -
Involvement in disease
Variation in NOS3 seem to be associated with susceptibility to coronary spasm. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the NOS family.
Contains 1 FAD-binding FR-type domain.
Contains 1 flavodoxin-like domain. -
Post-translational
modificationsPhosphorylation by AMPK at Ser-1177 in the presence of Ca(2+)-calmodulin (CaM) activates activity. In absence of Ca(2+)-calmodulin, AMPK also phosphorylates Thr-495, resulting in inhibition of activity (By similarity). Phosphorylation of Ser-114 by CDK5 reduces activity. -
Cellular localization
Cell membrane. Membrane, caveola. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Golgi apparatus. Specifically associates with actin cytoskeleton in the G2 phase of the cell cycle and which is favored by interaction with NOSIP and results in a reduced enzymatic activity. - Information by UniProt

SimpleStep ELISA technology allows the formation of the antibody-antigen complex in one single step, reducing assay time to 90 minutes. Add samples or standards and antibody mix to wells all at once, incubate, wash, and add your final substrate. See protocol for a detailed step-by-step guide.

Interpolated concentrations of native eNOS in mouse kidney extract, heart extract, brain extract, and bEnd.3 cell extract samplesThe concentrations of eNOS were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the eNOS standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: kidney extract 1,000 µg/mL, heart extract 1,000 µg/mL, brain extract 250 µg/mL, and bEnd.3 extract 25 µg/mL. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean eNOS concentration in the undiluted samples was determined to be 1,259 pg/mL in kidney extract, 2,998 pg/mL in heart extract, 194 pg/mL in brain extract, and 1,419 pg/mL in bEnd.3 cell extract.
