SLC22A4 ELISA Kit (Human)

Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay) : 3 samples with low, middle and high level Organic Cation/Ergothioneine Transporter (OCTN1) were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively. Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays) : 3 samples with low, middle and high level Organic Cation/Ergothioneine Transporter (OCTN1) were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate. CV (%) = SD/meanX100 Intra-Assay: CV<10% Inter-Assay: CV<12%

Deafness, autosomal recessive 60; DFNB60; ergothioneine transporter; ET transporter; integral membrane transport protein; OCTN1; organic cation/carnitine transporter 1; solute carrier family 22 (organic cation/ergothioneine transporter), member 4; solute carrier family 22 (organic cation/zwitterion transporter), member 4; solute carrier family 22 member 4.

Sodium-ion dependent, low affinity carnitine transporter. Probably transports one sodium ion with one molecule of carnitine. Also transports organic cations such as tetraethylammonium (TEA) without the involvement of sodium. Relative uptake activity ratio of carnitine to TEA is 1.78. A key substrate of this transporter seems to be ergothioneine (ET) .

The test principle applied in this kit is Sandwich enzyme immunoassay. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to Organic Cation/Ergothioneine Transporter (OCTN1) . Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Organic Cation/Ergothioneine Transporter (OCTN1) . Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain Organic Cation/Ergothioneine Transporter (OCTN1), biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm +/- 10nm. The concentration of Organic Cation/Ergothioneine Transporter (OCTN1) in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
