Background | The Quantikine Human Survivin immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure human Survivin in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma, and urine. It contains E. coli-expressed recombinant human Survivin and has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural human Survivin showed linear curves that were parallel to the stan...dard curves obtained using the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for naturally occurring human Survivin. Show More |

Survivin is a member of the Inhibitor of Apoptosis (IAP) gene family and contains a single BIR domain. Increased survivin expression at the G2/M checkpoint contributes to tissue homeostasis and differentiation during embryonic and fetal development. Increased expression in differentiated adult tissues, however, frequently results in unchecked cell survival, resulting in cancer. Survivin can protect cells from caspase-induced apoptosis activated in mitosis presumably by binding to Caspase-3, -7, and -9.

The Ins and Outs of Survivin By Rachel M.A. Linger, Ph.D.What is survivin?Survivin is a small (16.5 kDa) protein normally found in human fetal tissue. In contrast, survivin is typically undetectable in most normal adult tissues. Expression of ... Read full blog post. |
Survivin - an inhibitor of apoptosis that drives tumorigenesis and metastasis Apoptosis is the tightly regulated process of programmed cell death. It plays an important role in normal physiologic development but has also been implicated in a number of diseases. Apoptosis is constantly downregulated by a family of anti-apop...

Survivin - an inhibitor of apoptosis protein Survivin is an anti-apoptotic protein which is the smallest protein within a large family of proteins including X-linked IAP, c-IAP1 and 2, IAP-like protein-2, melanoma IAP, NAIP, and Livin. Survivin is responsible for a wide range of basic cellula... Read full blog post. |
