Human Kallikrein 5 ELISA Kit

This Human Kallikrein 5 ELISA Kit from Innovative Research is intended for quantitative detection of human KLK5 in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma (heparin , EDTA), human milk and saliva. Strip well format. Reagents for up to 96 tests.

This human KLK5 ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from mouse specific for KLK5 has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(NSO, V23-S293) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for KLK5 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 KLK5 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: Kallikrein gene 5(KLK5, also known as KLK-L2), located on chromosome 19q13.4, is one of the newly identified members of the kallikrein gene family, which is a subgroup of the serine protease enzyme family. In normal human tissues, KLK5 is highly expressed in skin, mammary gland and testis. KLK5 has been suggested to regulate cell shedding(desquamation) in conjunction with KLK7 and KLK14, given its ability to degrade proteins which form the extracellular component of cell junctions in the stratum corneum. It is proposed that KLK5 regulates this process since it is able to self-activate in addition to activating KLK7 and KLK14.; Immunogen sequence: 400
