Product overview
Phospho-eNOS (S1177) and Total eNOS (ab279779) is a very rapid, convenient, and sensitive assay kit that can monitor the activation or function of important biological pathways in human cell lysates. By determining phosphorylated eNOS protein in your experimental model system, you can verify pathway activation in your cell lysates. You can simultaneously measure numerous different cell lysates without spending excess time and effort in performing a Western Blotting analysis.
This Sandwich ELISA kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the measurement of human phospho-eNOS and total eNOS. An anti-pan eNOS antibody has been coated onto a 96-well plate. Samples are pipetted into the wells and eNOS present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody and the wells are washed. In select wells, rabbit anti-phospho eNOS (S1177) antibody is added to detect phosphorylated eNOS. In the remaining wells, mouse anti-pan-eNOS antibody is used to detect pan eNOS. After washing away unbound antibody, HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG or HRP-anti-mouse IgG is pipetted into the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of eNOS (S1177) or pan eNOS bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.

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
