Human Nidogen-1 (Entactin) ELISA Kit

This Human Nidogen-1 (Entactin) ELISA Kit from Innovative Research is intended for quantitative detection of human Nidogen-1 in cell culture supernates and serum. Strip well format. Reagents for up to 96 tests.

This human Nidogen-1 ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from mouse specific for Nidogen-1 has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(NSO, L29-K1114) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for Nidogen-1 is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the human Nidogen-1 amount of sample captured in plate.

Additional Information: The capture antibody is a monoclonal antibody from mouse, the detection antibody is a biotinylated polyclonal antibody from goat. Expression system for standard: Nidogen-1(NID-1), also known as Entactin, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NID1 gene. It is a member of the nidogen family of basement membrane glycoproteins. This gene is mapped to 1q42.3. Nidogen-1 is a component of the basement membrane alongside other components such as collagen type IV, proteoglycans(heparan sulfate and glycosaminoglycans), laminin and fibronectin. The protein interacts with several other components of basement membranes. Structurally it(along with perlecan) connects the networks formed by collagens and laminins to each other. It may also play a role in cell interactions with the extracellular matrix. Nidogen-1 also can serve as a bridge between the 2 most abundant molecules in the basement membrane: type IV collagen and laminin.; Immunogen sequence: 369
