Mouse ADAM17 (A Disintegrin And Metalloprotease 17) 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 ADAM17. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Mouse ADAM17. 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 ADAM17, 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 ADAM17 in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve. Protein Function: Cleaves the membrane-bound precursor of TNF-alpha to its mature soluble form. Responsible for the proteolytical release of soluble JAM3 from endothelial cells surface. Plays a role in the proteolytic processing of ACE2 (By similarity). Responsible for the proteolytic release of several other cell-surface proteins, including p75 TNF-receptor, interleukin 1 receptor type II, p55 TNF-receptor, transforming growth factor-alpha, L-selectin, growth hormone receptor, MUC1 and the amyloid precursor protein (PubMed:10799547, PubMed:11108241). Acts as an activator of Notch pathway by mediating cleavage of Notch, generating the membrane-associated intermediate fragment called notch extracellular truncation (NEXT) (PubMed:10882063). Plays a role in hemostasis through shedding of GP1BA, the platelet glycoprotein Ib alpha chain (PubMed:12907434). Mediates the proteolytic cleavage of LAG3, leading to release the secreted form of LAG3 (PubMed:17245433). Mediates the proteolytic cleavage of IL6R, leading to the release of secreted form of IL6R (By similarity). Mediates the proteolytic cleavage and shedding of FCGR3A upon NK cell stimulation, a mechanism that allows for increased NK cell motility and detachment from opsonized target cells , Transmembrane metalloprotease which mediates the ectodomain shedding of a myriad of transmembrane proteins including adhesion proteins, growth factor precursors and cytokines important for inflammation and immunity (PubMed:10799547, PubMed:10882063).

Cleaves TREM2, resulting in shedding of the TREM2 ectodomain (By similarity) [The Uniprot Consortium]
