Mouse Mitofusin-2 (MFN2) ELISA Kit

MFN2 encodes a mitochondrial membrane protein that participates in mitochondrial fusion and contributes to the maintenance and operation of the mitochondrial network. This protein is involved in the regulation of vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation, and it may play a role in the pathophysiology of obesity. Mutations in MFN2 cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A2, and hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy VI, which are both disorders of the peripheral nervous system. Defects in MFN2 have also been associated with early-onset stroke. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified.

Mouse Mitofusin-2 (MFN2) ELISA Kit has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Mouse MFN2. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Mouse MFN2 and analogues was observed.

This Mouse Mitofusin-2 (MFN2) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate MFN2 in samples. An antibody specific for MFN2 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyMFN2 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for MFN2 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 MFN2 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.
