Human Lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 1 (LPCAT1) ELISA Kit

Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) acyltransferase (LPCAT) catalyzes the conversion of LPC to phosphatidylcholine (PC) in the remodeling pathway of PC biosynthesis. deduced 534-amino acid mouse and human proteins contain 3 transmembrane domains, several motifs conserved in members of the LPCAT family, a putative EF hand domain, and a C-terminal endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retention signal. They share about 88% amino acid identity. Real-time RT-PCR of mouse tissues showed that Lpcat1 was expressed at highest levels in lung, followed by spleen and brain. Other tissues had low Lpcat1 levels. Confocal microscopy detected epitope-tagged Lpcat1 mainly in the ER and Golgi of transfected cells.

Human Lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 1 (LPCAT1) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human LPCAT1. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human LPCAT1 and analogues was observed.

This Human Lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 1 (LPCAT1) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate LPCAT1 in samples. An antibody specific for LPCAT1 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyLPCAT1 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for LPCAT1 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 LPCAT1 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.
