Mouse Homing Cell Adhesion Molecule (CD44) ELISA Kit

This Mouse Homing Cell Adhesion Molecule (CD44) ELISA Kit from Innovative Research is intended for quantitative detection of mouse CD44 in cell culture supernates, cell lysates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA). Strip well format. Reagents for up to 96 tests.

This mouse CD44 ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A polyclonal antibody from sheep specific for CD44 has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(CHO, Q25 - T224) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from sheep specific for CD44 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 CD44 amount of sample captured in plate.

Additional Information: The capture antibody is a polyclonal antibody from sheep, the detection antibody is a biotinylated polyclonal antibody from sheep. Expression system for standard: CD44 is an integral cell membrane glycoprotein with a postulated role in matrix adhesion lymphocyte activation and lymph node homing. It is contains 19 exons spanning 50 kb of genomic DNA. In humans, the CD44 antigen is encoded by the CD44 gene on Chromosome 11. The protein encoded by this gene is a cell-surface glycoprotein involved in cell-cell interactions, cell adhesion and migration. It is a receptor for hyaluronic acid (HA) and can also interact with other ligands, such as osteopontin, collagens, and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Transcripts for this gene undergo complex alternative splicing that results in many functionally distinct isoforms, however, the full length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. Alternative splicing is the basis for the structural and functional diversity of this protein, and may be related to tumor metastasis.; Immunogen sequence: 369
