Human Delta-sarcoglycan (SGCD) ELISA Kit

Delta-sarcoglycan isone of the four known components of the sarcoglycan complex, which is a subcomplex of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC) . The sarcoglycans are a family of transmembrane proteins involved in the protein complex responsible for connecting the muscle fibre cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix, preventing damage the muscle fibre sarcolemma through shearing forces. This protein is expressed most abundantly in skeletal and cardiac muscle. The mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy and dilated cardiomyopathy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been observed.In melanocytic cells SGCD gene expression may be regulated by MITF.

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

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