Human Paraplegin (SPG7) ELISA Kit

Paraplegin (SPG7) encodes a mitochondrial metalloprotease protein that is a member of the AAA family. Members of this protein family share an ATPase domain and have roles in diverse cellular processes including membrane trafficking, intracellular motility, organelle biogenesis, protein folding, and proteolysis. Mutations in this gene cause autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia 7. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified.

Human Paraplegin (SPG7) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human SPG7. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human SPG7 and analogues was observed.

This Human Paraplegin (SPG7) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate SPG7 in samples. An antibody specific for SPG7 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anySPG7 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for SPG7 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of SPG7 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

• Do not mix components from different kit lots or use reagents beyond the kit expiration date.• Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.• Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.• Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 °C in the sealed bag provided.• Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.• It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.
