Human Cerebral Dopamine Neurotrophic Factor ELISA Kit

This Human Cerebral Dopamine Neurotrophic Factor ELISA Kit from Innovative Research is intended for Quantitative Detection of human CDNF in cell culture supernates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA). Strip well format. Reagents for up to 96 tests.

This human CDNF ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from mouse specific for CDNF has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards (Expression system for standard: E.coli, Immunogen sequence: Q25-L187) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for CDNF is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the human CDNF amount of sample captured in plate.

Additional Information: The capture antibody is a monoclonal antibody from mouse, the detection antibody is a biotinylated polyclonal antibody from goat. Expression system for standard: Cerebral dopamine neurotrophic factor also known as ARMET-like protein 1 or is a protein that in humans that is encoded by the CDNF gene. CDNF and MANF are secreted proteins with 8 conserved cysteine residues, which predict a unique protein fold and define an evolutionarily conserved protein family. The human CDNF mRNA encodes a 187-amino acid protein with a predicted signal peptide and apparently no prosequence. The predicted secondary structure, like that of MANF, is dominated by alpha-helices. Human CDNF shares 59% amino acid identity with human MANF, and 49% and 46% identity with D. melanogaster and C. elegans Manf proteins, respectively. RT-PCR of mouse brain detected Cdnf transcripts in embryonic and postnatal stages, and in adult brain regions, including the striatum. In the midbrain, Cdnf mRNA was expressed from embryonic stages to the adult. High levels of Cdnf mRNA were observed in adult mouse heart, skeletal muscle, and testis. In agreement with the results from mouse, wide expression of CDNF transcripts was detected in human brain and nonneuronal tissues. Interestingly, levels of CDNF transcripts were relatively high in the corpus callosum and optic nerve, which are devoid of neuronal cell bodies and contain mostly axonal projections and oligodendrocytes. At postnatal stage P10 of the mouse brain, Cdnf staining was most intense in the hippocampus and thalamus. Cdnf signal was also detected in striatum and substantia nigra.; Immunogen sequence: 399
