Human MCL1 ELISA kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of human MCL1 in serum (human MCL1 concentration is low in normal serum/plasma, and may not be detectable in this assay), plasma and cell culture supernatants. This assay employs an antibody specific for human MCL1 coated on a 96-well plate.

MCL1 also known as myeloid cell leukemia sequence 1 is an anti-apoptotic member of the BCL-2 family. This protein plays an important role in regulating cell survival by inhibiting apoptosis. MCL1 has a molecular weight of approximately 37 kDa. It is primarily expressed in the mitochondria and can be found in various tissues including heart liver placenta and kidneys.
MCL1 protein functions to maintain cell viability by counteracting pro-apoptotic stimuli. It interacts within the cell as part of a complex network involving other BCL-2 family proteins. MCL1 binds and sequesters BH3-only proteins and Bax therefore preventing them from initiating the apoptotic cascade. This interaction helps cells survive under stress conditions by temporarily inhibiting apoptosis.
MCL1 plays a significant role in the intrinsic (mitochondrial) apoptosis pathway and the cell signaling pathways that facilitate cell survival and proliferation. In the mitochondrial pathway it works closely with other BCL-2 family members like BCL-xL and BCL-2 itself to control the permeability of the mitochondrial outer membrane and thereby influence cytochrome c release. The PI3K/AKT pathway can also regulate MCL1 leading to increases in its expression and stability which promotes cell survival.
Researchers have linked alterations in MCL1 expression to various cancers including leukemia and lymphoma. Overexpression of MCL1 can contribute to chemoresistance in cancer cells by preventing apoptosis. This protein's function is also connected to cardiomyopathies where altered MCL1 expression in cardiac tissue can influence cell death and survival outcomes. BCL-2 and BCL-xL closely related proteins also implicate in these conditions highlighting the central role of the apoptotic regulatory network in disease development.
