The protein encoded by MID1 is a member of the tripartite motif (TRIM) family, also known as the 'RING-B box-coiled coil' (RBCC) subgroup of RING finger proteins. The TRIM motif includes three zinc-binding domains, a RING, a B-box type 1 and a B-box type 2, and a coiled-coil region. This protein forms homodimers which associate with microtubules in the cytoplasm. The protein is likely involved in the formation of multiprotein structures acting as anchor points to microtubules. Mutations in MID1 have been associated with the X-linked form of Opitz syndrome, which is characterized by midline abnormalities such as cleft lip, laryngeal cleft, heart defects, hypospadias, and agenesis of the corpus callosum. MID1 was also the first example of a gene subject to X inactivation in human while escaping it in mouse. Alternative promoter use, alternative splicing and alternative polyadenylation result in multiple transcript variants that have different tissue specificities.
Mouse Midline-1 (MID1) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate MID1 in samples. An antibody specific for MID1 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyMID1 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for MID1 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of MID1 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
