Mouse PRF1 (Perforin 1) Microsample ELISA Kit

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 Mouse PRF1. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Mouse PRF1. 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 Mouse PRF1, 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 Mouse PRF1 in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.Detection Range: 0.16-10 ng/mL. Sensitivity: 0.064 ng/mL. Assay Type: Sandwich. Standard: 10 ng/mL. Sample Type: sserum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids. Assay duration: 3.5h. Protein Function: Binds to actin monomers and regulates the organization of the actin cytoskeleton (PubMed:26574597). At high concentrations, profilin prevents the polymerization of actin, whereas it enhances it at low concentrations (PubMed:29861135). At low concentrations, associates with the poly-proline motif of formins to enhance actin filament elongation rate (PubMed:29861135). Binds ACT1, ACT7 and ACT11 and inhibits actin polymerization (PubMed:26578694). Coordinates the stochastic dynamic properties of actin filaments by modulating formin-mediated actin nucleation and assembly during axial cell expansion (PubMed:26574597). Binds G-actin and poly-L-proline in vitro (PubMed:19200149). Inhibits cell growth of various pathogenic fungal strains (PubMed:30056100). May play a role as antifungal proteins in the defense system against fungal pathogen attacks (PubMed:30056100) [The Uniprot Consortium]
