Mouse Phospholipase A-2-activating protein (PLAA) ELISA Kit | KTE70736

Mouse Phospholipase A-2-activating protein (PLAA) ELISA Kit | KTE70736 | Gentaur UK, US & Europe Distribution

Application: This Mouse Phospholipase A-2-activating protein (PLAA) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate PLAA in samples. An antibody specific for PLAA has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyPLAA present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for PLAA 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 PLAA bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Detection Method: Colorimetric

Conjugate: N/A

Sample Type: Cell culture supernatants#Serum#Plasma#Other biological fluids

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.

Background: Phospholipase A2-activating protein (PLAP) is potentially important in regulating the inflammatory response through its activation of phospholipase A2, which catalyzes the release of arachidonic acid. By screening a human monocyte cDNA library with a mouse Plap cDNA, Chopra et al. (1999) isolated human PLAP cDNAs. The 738-amino acid human PLAP protein predicted by the cDNA sequence has a molecular mass of 80, 826 kD; however, immunoblot analysis using antibodies against PLAP detected a 72- to 74-kD protein in human monocyte cell lysates. In mouse macrophages, an antisense Plap oligonucleotide blocked cholera toxin-induced arachidonic acid release, indicating a role for PLAP in the regulation of phospholipase A2 activation.
