Mouse TOMM20-like protein 1 (TOMM20L) ELISA Kit

The translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane (TOM) complex is a multisubunit complex involved in the recognition, unfolding, and translocation of preproteins from the cytosol into the mitochondria. The deduced 142-amino acid human protein, which is approximately 33% similar to the yeast proteins, contains an N-terminal negatively charged region, an internal hydrophobic transmembrane region, and a C-terminal region with a glutamine-rich segment. Immunoblot analysis and fluorescence microscopy showed expression of a 21-kD mitochondrial membrane protein with its N and C termini exposed to the cytosol and intermembrane space of the mitochondrial outer membrane, respectively.An association between the rat Tomm22 protein, which is 94% identical to the human protein, and Tomm40 was observed.

Mouse TOMM20-like protein 1 (TOMM20L) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Mouse TOMM20L. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Mouse TOMM20L and analogues was observed.

This Mouse TOMM20-like protein 1 (TOMM20L) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate TOMM20L in samples. An antibody specific for TOMM20L has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyTOMM20L present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for TOMM20L 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 TOMM20L 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.
