Product details
Human PTEN ELISA Kit (ab206979) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of PTEN protein in cell culture extracts and tissue extracts. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Human PTEN with 39.9 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 strips
A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.
Phospatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) is a protein phosphatase involved in cell polarization and directed movement, neurogenesis, glucose and metabolism. Its role as a lipid phosphatase is critical for its role in tumor suppression, and mutations in PTEN are associated with the development of many cancers. PTEN is widely expressed and highly conserved among mammals.

Biological function summary
PTEN plays important roles in cellular processes like apoptosis cell proliferation and migration. It negatively regulates the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway critical for cell survival and growth. PTEN is not part of a larger protein complex but interacts with various other proteins modulating its activity. It maintains cellular homeostasis by balancing growth-promoting signals with cell cycle arrest and apoptotic pathways.
Pathways
PTEN is an important component in the PI3K/AKT and mTOR signaling pathways. These pathways regulate cell growth metabolism and survival and are interlinked with insulin signaling and cancer progression. PTEN's function directly interacts with proteins such as AKT and mTOR serving as a checkpoint that ensures controlled cellular proliferation. This positions PTEN as a tumor suppressor inhibiting uncontrolled cell growth via modulation of these pathways.
