Human OSBP (Oxysterol-binding protein 1) ELISA Kit (HUFI07411)

Human OSBP (Oxysterol-binding protein 1) ELISA Kit from Assay Genie is a pre-coated immunoassay with a high sensitivity and broad range and has been designed to measure Human OSBP (Oxysterol-binding protein 1) in serum, plasma & cell culture supernatant samples. The Human OSBP (Oxysterol-binding protein 1) ELISA Kit accurately measures natural Human OSBP (Oxysterol-binding protein 1) levels quantified versus standard curves obtained and is based on antibodies raised against a recombinant Human OSBP (Oxysterol-binding protein 1) peptide. Protein function: Lipid transporter involved in lipid countertransport between the Golgi complex and membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum: specifically exchanges sterol with phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P), delivering sterol to the Golgi in exchange for PI4P, which is degraded by the SAC1/SACM1L phosphatase in the endoplasmic reticulum (PubMed:24209621). Binds cholesterol and a range of oxysterols including 25-hydroxycholesterol (PubMed:15746430, PubMed:17428193). Cholesterol binding promotes the formation of a complex with PP2A and a tyrosine phosphatase which dephosphorylates ERK1/2, whereas 25- hydroxycholesterol causes its disassembly (PubMed:15746430). Regulates cholesterol efflux by decreasing ABCA1 stability (PubMed:18450749). [The UniProt Consortium]
