Mouse Hemojuvelin ELISA Kit

This Mouse Hemojuvelin ELISA Kit from Innovative Research is intended for quantitative detection of mouse Hemojuvelin in cell culture supernates, cell lysates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA). Strip well format. Reagents for up to 96 tests.

This mouse Hemojuvelin ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from rat specific for Hemojuvelin has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(NSO, Q33-D393) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for Hemojuvelin 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 mouse Hemojuvelin amount of sample captured in plate.

Additional Information: The capture antibody is a monoclonal antibody from rat, the detection antibody is a biotinylated polyclonal antibody from goat. Expression system for standard: Hemojuvelin (HJV/RGMc/HFE2) is a membrane-bound and soluble protein in mammals. It is a member of a three gene family (in vertebrates) called the repulsive guidance molecules. In mouse, the Hemojuvelin protein is encoded by the HFE2 gene, and it is mapped to Chromosome 3. It was concluded that downregulation of hepatic Hemojuvelin during inflammation may induce a temporary elimination of iron sensing. Hemojuvelin is a coreceptor for bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), and inhibition of endogenous BMP signaling reduces hepcidin expression and increases serum iron in mice. Furthermore, Hemojuvelin may play inhibitory roles in prostate cancer by suppressing cell growth, adhesion, migration and invasion. ; Immunogen sequence: 369
