Product Info

• Predicted Species Reactivity: Mouse|Mus musculus
• Application: Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent assay-Sandwich
• ELISA Kit Detection Method: Colorimetric
• ELISA Kit Duration: 3h
• ELISA Kit Principle: The test principle applied in this kit is Sandwich enzyme immunoassay. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to Agouti Related Protein (AGRP). Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Agouti Related Protein (AGRP). Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain Agouti Related Protein (AGRP), biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm +/- 10nm. The concentration of Agouti Related Protein (AGRP) in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
• ELISA Kit Range: 31.2-2000pg/mL
• ELISA Kit Reproducibility: Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, middle and high level Agouti Related Protein (AGRP) were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively. Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): 3 samples with low, middle and high level Agouti Related Protein (AGRP) were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate.

Target Info

• Gene Symbol: Agrp
• Gene Full Name: agouti related neuropeptide
• Alias Symbols: Ag;agouti-related protein;Agrt;Art;orexigenic neuropeptide.
• NCBI Gene Id: 11604
• Protein Name: Agouti-related protein
• Description of Target: Plays a role in weight homeostasis. Involved in the control of feeding behavior through the central melanocortin system. Acts as alpha melanocyte-stimulating hormone antagonist by inhibiting cAMP production mediated by stimulation of melanocortin receptors within the hypothalamus and adrenal gland. Has very low activity with MC5R. Is an inverse agonist for MC3R and MC4R being able to suppress their constitutive activity (By similarity). It promotes MC3R and MC4R endocytosis in an arrestin-dependent manner (By similarity).
