Product Info

• Predicted Species Reactivity: Rat|Rattus norvegicus
• 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 Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 (PCSK9). Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 (PCSK9). 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 Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 (PCSK9), 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 Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 (PCSK9) in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
• ELISA Kit Range: 3.12-200ng/mL
• ELISA Kit Reproducibility: Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, middle and high level Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 (PCSK9) were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively. Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): 3 samples with low, middle and high level Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 (PCSK9) were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate. CV(%) = SD/meanX100 Intra-Assay: CV<10% Inter-Assay: CV<12%

• NCBI Gene Id: 298296
• Protein Name: Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9
• Description of Target: Crucial player in the regulation of plasma cholesterol homeostasis. Binds to low-density lipid receptor family members: low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), very low density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR), apolipoprotein E receptor (LRP1/APOER) and apolipoprotein receptor 2 (LRP8/APOER2), and promotes their degradation in intracellular acidic compartments. Acts via a non-proteolytic mechanism to enhance the degradation of the hepatic LDLR through a clathrin LDLRAP1/ARH-mediated pathway. May prevent the recycling of LDLR from endosomes to the cell surface or direct it to lysosomes for degradation. Can induce ubiquitination of LDLR leading to its subsequent degradation. Inhibits intracellular degradation of APOB via the autophagosome/lysosome pathway in a LDLR-independent manner. Involved in the disposal of non-acetylated intermediates of BACE1 in the early secretory pathway. Inhibits epithelial Na(+) channel (ENaC)-mediated Na(+) absorption by reducing ENaC surface expression primarily by increasing its proteasomal degradation. Regulates neuronal apoptosis via modulation of LRP8/APOER2 levels and related anti-apoptotic signaling pathways (By similarity).
