Vimentin Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit

• Description:

  The Vimentin Cell-Based ELISA Kit is a convenient, lysate-free, high throughput and sensitive assay kit that can monitor Vimentin protein expression profile in cells. The kit can be used for measuring the relative amounts of Vimentin in cultured cells as well as screening for the effects that various treatments, inhibitors (ie. siRNA or chemicals), or activators have on Vimentin.

• Synonyms:

  Vimentin; VIM

• Gene Name:

  VIM

• UniProt:

  P08670

• Reactivity:

  Human, Mouse, Rat

• Tissue Specificity:

  Highly expressed in fibroblasts, some expression in T- and B-lymphocytes, and little or no expression in Burkitt's lymphoma cell lines. Expressed in many hormone- independent mammary carcinoma cell lines.

• Applications:

  ELISA

• Detection Range:

  > 5000 cells/well

• Function:

  Vimentins are class-III intermediate filaments found in various non-epithelial cells, especially mesenchymal cells. Vimentin is attached to the nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, and mitochondria, either laterally or terminally.
