Fibroblast growth factor 13 (FGF13) is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth, and invasion. Besides, Prion Protein (PRNP) has been identified as an interactor of FGF13, thus a binding ELISA assay was conducted to detect the interaction of recombinant human FGF13 and recombinant human PRNP. Briefly, FGF13 were diluted serially in PBS, with 0.01% BSA (pH 7.4). Duplicate samples of 100μL were then transferred to PRNP-coated microtiter wells and incubated for 2h at 37℃. Wells were washed with PBST and incubated for 1h with anti-FGF13 pAb, then aspirated and washed 3 times. After incubation with HRP labelled secondary antibody, wells were aspirated and washed 3 times. With the addition of substrate solution, wells were incubated 15-25 minutes at 37℃. Finally, add 50µL stop solution to the wells and read at 450nm immediately. The binding activity of FGF13 and PRNP was shown in Figure 1, and this effect was in a dose dependent manner.
