AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra Human Total ULK1 Detection Kit, 100 Assay Points

UNC-51 like autophagy activating kinase exists in two similar isoforms, ULK1 and ULK2. ULK1 is regulated by the key nutrient/energy-sensitive kinases mTOR and AMPK, which are both able to phosphorylate ULK1 and directly regulate its kinase activity. ULK1 forms a complex with the Atg13 and FIP200 proteins, this complex is the most upstream component of the core autophagy machinery and is, therefore, the key initiator of autophagy in mammalian cells. ULK1 is implicated in a variety of therapeutic areas including oncology, autoimmunity, neurology, and diabetes.

The AlphaLISA SureFire Human Total ULK1 Detection Kit is a sandwich immunoassay for the quantitative detection of total ULK1 in cellular lysates, using Alpha Technology.
