Product Info

• Predicted Species Reactivity: Homo sapiens|Human
• 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 Retinoic Acid Receptor Alpha (RARa). Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Retinoic Acid Receptor Alpha (RARa). 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 Retinoic Acid Receptor Alpha (RARa), 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 Retinoic Acid Receptor Alpha (RARa) in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
• ELISA Kit Range: 0.156-10ng/mL
• ELISA Kit Reproducibility: Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, middle and high level Retinoic Acid Receptor Alpha (RARa) were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively. Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): 3 samples with low, middle and high level Retinoic Acid Receptor Alpha (RARa) were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate.

• NCBI Gene Id: 5914
• Protein Name: Retinoic acid receptor alpha
• Description of Target: Receptor for retinoic acid. Retinoic acid receptors bind as heterodimers to their target response elements in response to their ligands, all-trans or 9-cis retinoic acid, and regulate gene expression in various biological processes. The RXR/RAR heterodimers bind to the retinoic acid response elements (RARE) composed of tandem 5'-AGGTCA-3' sites known as DR1-DR5. In the absence of ligand, the RXR-RAR heterodimers associate with a multiprotein complex containing transcription corepressors that induce histone acetylation, chromatin condensation and transcriptional suppression. On ligand binding, the corepressors dissociate from the receptors and associate with the coactivators leading to transcriptional activation. RARA plays an essential role in the regulation of retinoic acid-induced germ cell development during spermatogenesis. Has a role in the survival of early spermatocytes at the beginning prophase of meiosis. In Sertoli cells, may promote the survival and development of early meiotic prophase spermatocytes. In concert with RARG, required for skeletal growth, matrix homeostasis and growth plate function (By similarity).
