Endothelial protein C receptor (EPCR), also known as CCCA or PROCR, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PROCR gene. PRPCR gene is mapped to 20q11.2 by radiation hybrid analysis and FISH. The protein encoded by this gene is a receptor for activated protein C, a serine protease activated by and involved in the blood coagulation pathway. The encoded protein is an N- glycosylated type I membrane protein that enhances the activation of protein C. Mutations in this gene have been associated with venous thromboembolism and myocardial infarction, as well as with late fetal loss during pregnancy.
Intended Use:Sandwich High Sensitivity BioAssay™ ELISA kit for Quantitative Detection of Mouse EPCR.
Sensitivity:<15pg/ml
Range:156pg/ml-10,000pg/ml
Specificity:Recognizes natural and recombinant Mouse EPCR. There is no detectable cross-reactivity with other relevant proteins.
Test Principle:This Mouse EPCR BioAssay™ ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A specific for EPCR has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(Expression system for standard: NSO; Immunogen sequence: L18-S214) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection specific for EPCR 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 Mouse EPCR amount of sample captured in plate.
Storage and Stability:Store powder at 4°C liquid at -20°C. Store other components at 4°C. Stable for at least 6 months For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
