Multifunctional transcription factor that induces cell cycle arrest, DNA repair or apoptosis upon binding to its target DNA sequence (PubMed:19556538, PubMed:20673990, PubMed:22726440). Acts as a tumor suppressor in many tumor types; induces growth arrest or apoptosis depending on the physiological circumstances and cell type. Negatively regulates cell division by controlling expression of a set of genes required for this process. One of the activated genes is an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases. Apoptosis induction seems to be mediated either by stimulation of BAX and FAS antigen expression, or by repression of Bcl-2 expression. Its pro-apoptotic activity is activated via its interaction with PPP1R13B/ASPP1 or TP53BP2/ASPP2 (By similarity). However, this activity is inhibited when the interaction with PPP1R13B/ASPP1 or TP53BP2/ASPP2 is displaced by PPP1R13L/iASPP (By similarity). In cooperation with mitochondrial PPIF is involved in activating oxidative stress-induced necrosis; the function is largely independent of transcription. Prevents CDK7 kinase activity when associated to CAK complex in response to DNA damage, thus stopping cell cycle progression (By similarity). Induces the transcription of long intergenic non-coding RNA p21 (lincRNA-p21) and lincRNA-Mkln1. LincRNA-p21 participates in TP53-dependent transcriptional repression leading to apoptosis, but seems to have to effect on cell-cycle regulation. Regulates the circadian clock by repressing CLOCK-BMAL1-mediated transcriptional activation of PER2 (PubMed:24051492).

Mouse p53 ELISA Kit ab224878 is a rapid single-wash 90-min Sandwich ELISA to measure Mouse p53 in cell culture extracts, tissue extracts. This SimpleStep sensitivity is 44 pg/mL.
How the assay works
Mouse p53 SimpleStep ELISA®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.
Assay Specificity
Our SimpleStep ELISA® kits use recombinant monoclonal antibodies rigorously validated to ensure the highest level of consistency and reproducibility, improved sensitivity and specificity and ease of scalability and security of supply.
Please refer to our protocol booklet for more details.

p53 acts as a tumor suppressor in many tumor types and induces growth arrest or apoptosis depending on the physiological circumstances and cell type. p53 is involved in cell cycle regulation as a trans-activator that acts to negatively regulate cell division by controlling a set of genes required for this process. One of the activated genes is an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases. p53 mediated apoptosis induction seems to be by stimulation of BAX and FAS antigen expression, or by repression of Bcl-2 expression. p53 is also implicated in Notch signaling crossover.

The protein p53 also known as TP53 or tumor protein p53 has a molecular weight of approximately 53 kDa. It acts as a transcription factor and plays a major role in cell cycle regulation apoptosis and maintaining genomic stability. This protein mainly expresses in the nucleus of cells and acts as a critical regulator of cellular responses to stress signals including DNA damage. Scientists commonly use p53 antibodies in various assays like western blot and p53 immunofluorescence to detect and study its expression and functional status in cells.
P53 functions to control cell division and apoptosis serving as a guardian of the genome by preventing mutation accumulation. It does not form part of a larger complex under normal conditions but interacts with various other molecules to execute its functions. p53 can activate or suppress the transcription of numerous genes involved in cell cycle arrest DNA repair and programmed cell death allowing it to halt the progression of damaged cells and trigger repair mechanisms or eliminate those that cannot be repaired.
P53 acts within several key biological pathways such as the p53 signaling pathway and the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. Its activity involves interaction with proteins like MDM2 which regulates p53 through ubiquitin-mediated degradation and ATM kinase which phosphorylates p53 in response to DNA damage. These interactions ensure appropriate cellular responses during stress and are vital for maintaining homeostasis.
P53 mutation or inactivation is often associated with the development of cancer given its role in controlling cell division and preventing tumor formation. Specifically its dysfunction has been linked to cancers such as breast cancer and lung cancer. Additionally p53 can interact with other mutant proteins like Ras compounding mutations that contribute to tumor progression and aggressive cancer phenotypes. Understanding these interactions and the status of p53 can be important in developing targeted cancer therapies.

Example of Mouse p53 standard curve in 1X Cell Extraction Buffer PTR.
Background-subtracted data values (mean +/- SD) are graphed.
Interpolated concentrations of native p53 in Mouse cell extract samples based on a 150 μg/mL extract load for A20, 12.5 μg/ml for MEF, and 200 μg/mL for 1 mM doxorubicin-treated (6 hours) HIN/3T3 Cell Extract. The concentrations of p53 were measured in duplicate and interpolated from the p53 standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean p53 concentration was determined to be 9711 pg/mL in A20 Cell Extract, 9461 p/mL in MEF Cell Extract, and 7220 pg/mL in doxorubicin-treated NIH/3T3 Cell Extract.
Serial dilutions of 1 µM doxorubicin-treated (6 hours) and untreated NIH/3T3 cell extract starting from 200 µg/ml were assayed.
