Product details
cAMP ELISA kit (ab285319, E4715) uses the Competitive-ELISA principle. The micro ELISA plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with cAMP. During the reaction, cAMP in the sample or standard competes with a fixed amount of cAMP on the solid phase supporter for sites on the Biotinylated Detection Ab specific to cAMP. Excess conjugate and unbound sample or standard are washed from the plate, and Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) are added to each microplate well and incubated. Then a TMB substrate solution is added to each well.
The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of stop solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450 nm.
The concentration of cAMP in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve

Biological function summary
CAMP regulates numerous cellular processes including metabolism gene expression and cell growth. It functions as an important part of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling pathways where its concentration can significantly change influenced by external signals. cAMP modulates the activity of ion channels and various enzymes often participating in feedback loops to maintain cellular homeostasis.
Pathways
CAMP integrates into critical signal transduction pathways such as the cyclic AMP-dependent pathway and the calcium signaling pathway. It works closely with proteins like CREB (cAMP response element-binding protein) to regulate gene transcription. cAMP also impacts other molecules like phosphodiesterases which break it down maintaining its transient nature in response to stimuli.
