Mouse Synaptojanin-1 (SYNJ1) ELISA Kit

Synaptojanin-1 is a phosphatidylinositol (4,5) -bisphosphate (PI (4,5) P2) that has a role in clathrin-coated pit dynamics. The authors found that synaptojanin-170, an alternatively spliced isoform of SYNJ1, binds EPS15 , a clathrin coat-associated protein. Binding was mediated by the C-terminal region of synaptojanin-170, which contains 3 asparagine-proline-phenylalanine (NPF) repeats. This motif had been found to be the core of the binding site for the EH domains of EPS15. These findings suggested that SYNJ1 can be recruited to clathrin-coated pits via a multiplicity of interactions.These Synj1-deficient mice exhibited neurologic defects and died shortly after birth.

Mouse Synaptojanin-1 (SYNJ1) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Mouse SYNJ1. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Mouse SYNJ1 and analogues was observed.

This Mouse Synaptojanin-1 (SYNJ1) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate SYNJ1 in samples. An antibody specific for SYNJ1 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anySYNJ1 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for SYNJ1 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 SYNJ1 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.
