Human Gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase (γ-GCS) ELISA Kit | KTE62527

Human Gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase (γ-GCS) ELISA Kit | KTE62527 | Gentaur UK, US & Europe Distribution

Application: This Human Gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase (γ-GCS) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate γ-GCS in samples. An antibody specific for γ-GCS has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyγ-GCS present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for γ-GCS 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 γ-GCS bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Usage Note: • Do not mix components from different kit lots or use reagents beyond the kit expiration date.
• Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.
• Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.
• Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 °C in the sealed bag provided.
• Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.
• It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.

Storage Instruction: The unopened kit should be stored at 2 - 8°C. After opening, please store refer to protocols.

Shipping: Gel pack with blue ice.

Background: Glutamate-cysteine ligase, also known as gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase, is the first rate limiting enzyme of glutathione synthesis. The enzyme consists of two subunits, a heavy catalytic subunit and a light regulatory subunit. Gamma glutamylcysteine synthetase deficiency has been implicated in some forms of hemolytic anemia.It catalyses the ATP-dependent condensation of cysteine and glutamate to form the dipeptide gamma-glutamylcysteine. The peptide bond in this peptide product is between the carboxylate group of the glutamate and the amino group of the cysteine.The product of the GCL-mediated condensation reaction of L-glutamate and L-cysteine is gamma-glutamylcysteine, which is readily condensed with glycine, by glutathione synthetase, to form glutathione.
