Background
RIPK1 (Receptor-Interacting Protein Kinase 1), also known as RIP-1, is a multidomain serine/threonine protein kinase encoded by the human RIPK1 gene (located at 6p25.2). It is a master regulator of inflammatory and cell death signaling pathways, acting as a critical "molecular switch" that determines cell fate (survival or death).
RIPK1 exhibits dual functions—its scaffold function (kinase-independent) and its kinase function—which collectively determine the cell's ultimate fate.
RIPK1 activity is tightly controlled by post-translational modifications including ubiquitination, phosphorylation, and Caspase-8-mediated cleavage. Its dysregulation is implicated in various human diseases.
Protocol
Assay protocol
Principle: The RIPK1 assay is performed using the ADP-GloTM Kinase Assay kit which quantifies the amount of ADP produced by the RIPK1 reaction. The ADP-GloTM Reagent is added to terminate the kinase reaction and to deplete the remaining ATP, and then the Kinase Detection Reagent is added to convert ADP to ATP and to measure the newly synthesized ATP using luciferase/luciferin reaction.
