Human Myosin-VI (MYO6) ELISA Kit

MYO6 encodes a reverse-direction motor protein that moves toward the minus end of actin filaments and plays a role in intracellular vesicle and organelle transport. Myosin-VI consists of a motor domain containing an ATP- and an actin-binding site and a globular tail which interacts with other proteins. Myosin-VI maintains the structural integrity of inner ear hair cells and mutations in this gene cause non-syndromic autosomal dominant and recessive hearing loss. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.

Human Myosin-VI (MYO6) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human MYO6. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human MYO6 and analogues was observed.

This Human Myosin-VI (MYO6) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate MYO6 in samples. An antibody specific for MYO6 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyMYO6 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for MYO6 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 MYO6 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.
