ELISA Mouse Mitochondrial import receptor subunit TOM34 (TOMM34)

Reactivity:Mouse (Mus muscµLus) UniProt:Q9CYG7 Abbreviation:TOMM34 Alternative Names:HTOM34P; TOM34; URCC3; mitochondrial import receptor subunit TOM34|outer mitochondrial membrane translocase (34kD) Application:ELISA Range:Request Information Sensitivity:Request Information Intra-AssayCV:?6.7% Inter-AssayCV:?7.9% Recovery:0.9 Sample Type:Serum, Plasma, Other biological fluids Detection Method:Sandwich Analysis Method??:Quantitive Test principle:This assay employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate TOMM34 in samples. An antibody specific for TOMM34 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyTOMM34 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjµgated antibody specific for TOMM34 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjµgated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of TOMM34 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured. Product Overview:TOMM34 is involved in the import of precursor proteins into mitochondria. The encoded protein has a chaperone-like activity, binding the mature portion of unfolded proteins and aiding their import into mitochondria. This protein, which is found in the cytoplasm and sometimes associated with the outer mitochondrial membrane, has a weak ATPase activity and contains 6 TPR repeats. hTom34 is displayed on the surface of mitochondria and is resistant to extraction under alkaline conditions. Antibodies raised against hTom34 specifically inhibit in vitro import of the mitochondrial precursor protein preornithine transcarbamylase into mitochondria isolated from rat liver. Based on trypsin digestion experiments, the receptor has a large (27 kDa) C-terminal domain exposed to the cytosol. Stability:The stability of ELISA kit is determined by the loss rate of activity. The loss rate of this kit is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test. Keep the kit at 37°C for 4 and 7 days, and compare O.D.values of the kit kept at 37°C with that of at recommended temperature. (referring from China Biological Products Standard, which was calcµLated by the Arrhenius equation. For ELISA kit, 4 days storage at 37°C can be considered as 6 months at 2 - 8°C, which means 7 days at 37°C equaling 12 months at 2 - 8°C).
