Epididymal Secretory Protein E1 (NPC2) ELISA Kit for Pig

For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures. Catalog #: MBS280371

Principle of the Assay: This assay employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate NPC2 in samples. An antibody specific for NPC2 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyNPC2 present is bound by the… More details

Other Notes

Small volumes of NPC2 elisa kit vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

Searchable Terms for NPC2 purchase

MBS280371 is a ready-to-use microwell, strip-or-full plate ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) Kit for analyzing the presence of the Epididymal secretory protein E1 (NPC2) ELISA Kit target analytes in biological samples. The concentration gradients of the kit standards or positive controls render a theoretical kit detection range in biological research samples containing NPC2. The ELISA analytical biochemical technique of the MBS280371 kit is based on NPC2 antibody-NPC2 antigen interactions (immunosorbency) and an HRP colorimetric detection system to detect NPC2 antigen targets in samples. The ELISA Kit is designed to detect native, not recombinant, NPC2. Appropriate sample types may include undiluted body fluids and/or tissue homogenates, secretions. Quality control assays assessing reproducibility identified the intra-assay CV (%) and inter-assay CV(%).

UniProt Comments for NPC2

Intracellular cholesterol transporter which acts in concert with NPC1 and plays an important role in the egress of cholesterol from the endosomal/lysosomal compartment. Both NPC1 and NPC2 function as the cellular 'tag team duo' (TTD) to catalyze the mobilization of cholesterol within the multivesicular environment of the late endosome (LE) to effect egress through the limiting bilayer of the LE. NPC2 binds unesterified cholesterol that has been released from LDLs in the lumen of the late endosomes/lysosomes and transfers it to the cholesterol-binding pocket of the N-terminal domain of NPC1. Cholesterol binds to NPC1 with the hydroxyl group buried in the binding pocket and is exported from the limiting membrane of late endosomes/ lysosomes to the ER and plasma membrane by an unknown mechanism. The secreted form of NCP2 regulates biliary cholesterol secretion via stimulation of ABCG5/ABCG8-mediated cholesterol transport (). May be involved in the regulation of the lipid composition of sperm membranes during the maturation in the epididymis. Binds cholesterol in a 1:1 ratio.
