This Mouse Stathmin (STMN1) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate STMN1.

• Additional information:Stathmin 1/oncoprotein 18, also known as STMN1, is a highly conserved 17 kDa protein. Its function as an important regulatory protein of microtubule dynamics has been well characterized. Eukaryotic microtubules are one of three major components of the cell?s cytoskeleton. They are highly dynamic structures that continuously alternate between assembly and disassembly. Stathmin performs an important function in regulating rapid microtubule remodeling of the cytoskeleton in response to the cell?s needs. Microtubules are cylindrical polymers of ?,?-tubulin. Their assembly is in part determined by the concentration of free tubulin in the cytoplasm.At low concentrations of free tubulin, the growth rate at the microtubule ends is slowed and results in an increased rate of depolymerization (disassembly).
