Background

CDKN2A/p16INK4a is a gene that codes for a widely expressed protein with four isoforms, measuring 156, 105, 116, and 167 amino acids in length with weights of approximately 17, 11, 12, and 18 kDa respectively. CDKN2A/p16INK4a functions as a negative regulator of the proliferation of cells, which then allows them to interact with cyclins D and to phosphorylate the retinoblastoma protein. Current studies are being done on several diseases and disorders related to this gene including Li-Fraumeni syndrome, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell, acth-secreting pituitary adenoma, recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, marginal zone b-cell lymphoma, adult astrocytic tumor, melanoma, and squamous cell carcinoma. CDKN2A/p16INK4a has also been shown to have interactions with MDM2, ZNF420, EGR1, MYCN, and CDK6 in pathways such as the cell cycle, p53 signaling, mitochondrial apoptosis, HIF-1 Alpha, CRHR, pancreatic cancer, and glioma pathways.

1. What is the difference between the Quantikine and Duoset ELISA kits?
   • Our Quantikine kits are fully optimized and validated for the sample types listed on the product specific webpage and datasheet, as this can vary between kits. Each kit is supplied ready to use with one pre-coated 96-well plate, a detection antibody directly conjugated to HRP, and all other necessary reagents. These kits are ideal for researchers who want the convenience of a ready to use and optimized ELISA product. Some of these kits are also available prepackaged in larger 6 and 50 plate sizes.Our DuoSet Kits, in contrast, are ELISA development kits containing the capture and detection antibody, the mass-value calibrated standard, and streptavidin-HRP to prepare approximately 5 or 15 plates. Ancillary reagents will need to be used/purchased, and for most kits, we will recommend one of our Ancillary Reagent Kits, which contain the reagents we use ourselves in-house. DuoSet kits are validated only for cell culture supernatant samples and therefore require further development and validation for accurate measurement in more complex samples such as serum and plasma. Our DuoSet Kits offer an economical, flexible alternative for the experienced ELISA user.
