Mouse TMEM119 (Transmembrane Protein 119) ELISA (Small Sample Volume)

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 TMEM119. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Mouse TMEM119. 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 TMEM119, 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 TMEM119 in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve. Protein Function: Plays an important role in bone formation and normal bone mineralization (PubMed:20025746, PubMed:22416756, PubMed:26207632). Promotes the differentiation of myoblasts into osteoblasts (PubMed:20025746, PubMed:22416756, PubMed:22579779). May induce the commitment and differentiation of myoblasts into osteoblasts through an enhancement of BMP2 production and interaction with the BMP-RUNX2 pathway (PubMed:21239498, PubMed:22579779). Up-regulates the expression of ATF4 which plays a central role in osteoblast differentiation (PubMed:24362451). Essential for normal spermatogenesis and late testicular differentiation (PubMed:26207632) [The Uniprot Consortium]
