Human Proteolipid protein (PLP) ELISA Kit | KTE62489

Human Proteolipid protein (PLP) ELISA Kit | KTE62489 | Gentaur UK, US & Europe Distribution

Application: This Human Proteolipid protein (PLP) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate PLP in samples. An antibody specific for PLP has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyPLP present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for PLP 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 PLP 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: Proteolipid protein 1 is a protein associated with Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease. It is a 4 transmembrane domain protein which binds strongly to other copies of itself on the extracellular side of the membrane. In a myelin sheath, as the layers of myelin wraps come together, PLP will bind itself and tightly hold the cellular membranes together.This gene encodes a transmembrane proteolipid protein that is the predominant myelin protein present in the central nervous system. The encoded protein functions in myelination. This protein may play a role in the compaction, stabilization, and maintenance of myelin sheaths, as well as in oligodendrocyte development and axonal survival. Mutations associated with this gene cause X-linked Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease and spastic paraplegia type 2.
