Product details
The Human APRT ELISA Kit (ab283991) is designed for detection of APRT in human plasma, serum, cell culture, and cell lysate samples.
This assay employs a quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique that measures human APRT in approximately 4 hours. A polyclonal antibody specific for human APRT has been pre-coated onto a 96-well microplate with removable strips. APRT in standards and samples is sandwiched by the immobilized antibody and a biotinylated polyclonal antibody specific for human APRT, which is recognized by a streptavidin-peroxidase (SP) conjugate. All unbound material is washed away and a peroxidase enzyme substrate is added. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Biological function summary
Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase plays a role in cellular nucleotide pool maintenance by rescuing adenine from degradation and incorporating it back into cellular metabolism. This enzyme does not form part of a larger enzyme complex but acts independently to perform its catalytic function. Properly maintaining nucleotide balance is fundamental for cellular activities and imbalances can lead to cellular stress or DNA damage responses.
Pathways
The purine salvage pathway is where adenine phosphoribosyltransferase functions critically. This pathway operates alongside the de novo synthesis of purine nucleotides working to conserve energy and resources during nucleotide synthesis. APRT interacts closely with hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) within this salvage process to recycle purines effectively reducing the need for energy-expensive de novo synthesis.
