Ubiquitin is a highly conserved regulatory protein found in most tissues of eukaryotic organism. Phosphorylation of ubiquitin is a key step in the process of mitochondria quality control through the Parkin/PINK-1 interaction. Parkin is a ubiquitin ligase E3 that conjugates ubiquitin to impaired-mitochondrial proteins, leading to organelle degradation. PINK1 is a Ser/Thr kinase that accumulates only on impaired mitochondria and phosphorylates two substrates, the ubiquitin-like domain of Parkin and ubiquitin chains. The amplified Parkin/PINK-1 dependent ubiquitin functions act as a signal for mitophagy. Dysregulation of this signaling is linked to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's Disease.

The introduction of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) in the early 1970’s offered researchers a non-radiometric immunoassay platform without compromising sensitivity. Over the last 50 years scientists have made huge strides in disease research and drug discovery and a demand for greater assay throughput and sensitivity has evolved. In response, more robust immunoassays have been developed to address some of the limitations of the standard, colorimetric ELISA.
Find out about the most common limitations of traditional ELISAs and how different ELISA alternative technologies address these limitations.
