Human Monocarboxylate transporter 1 (SLC16A1) ELISA Kit

SLC16A1 mediates the movement of lactate and pyruvate across cell membranes Import and export of these substrates by tissues such as erythrocytes, muscle, intestine, and kidney are ascribed largely to the action of a proton-coupled MCT. The corresponding cDNA was isolated by an expression cloning strategy and found to encode a protein with 12 putative membrane-spanning regions. The cloned mutant 'mevalonate transporter' differed from its wildtype progenitor by 1 amino acid in the tenth membrane-spanning region, which changed a phenylalanine (wildtype) to a cysteine (mutant) . The finding that the wildtype cDNA did not elicit increased mevalonate transport in transfected cells suggested that the wildtype protein is a transporter for a molecule other than mevalonate.

Human Monocarboxylate transporter 1 (SLC16A1) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human SLC16A1. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human SLC16A1 and analogues was observed.

This Human Monocarboxylate transporter 1 (SLC16A1) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate SLC16A1 in samples. An antibody specific for SLC16A1 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anySLC16A1 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for SLC16A1 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 SLC16A1 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.
