Human Oxoglutarate Dehydrogenase (OGDH) ELISA Kit

Principle of the Assay

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 Human OGDH. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Human OGDH. 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 Human OGDH, 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 Human OGDH in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.

For use with: Tissue homogenates, cell lysates, and other biological fluids.

Target Information

2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase (E1o) component of the 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex (OGDHC) (PubMed:24495017, PubMed:25210035, PubMed:28435050). Participates in the first step, rate limiting for the overall conversion of 2-oxoglutarate to succinyl-CoA and CO(2) catalyzed by the whole OGDHC (PubMed:24495017, PubMed:25210035, PubMed:28435050). Catalyzes the irreversible decarboxylation of 2-oxoglutarate (alpha-ketoglutarate) via the thiamine diphosphate (ThDP) cofactor and subsequent transfer of the decarboxylated acyl intermediate on an oxidized dihydrolipoyl group that is covalently amidated to the E2 enzyme (dihydrolipoyllysine-residue succinyltransferase or DLST) (PubMed:24495017, PubMed:25210035, PubMed:28435050). Plays a key role in the Krebs (citric acid) cycle, which is a common pathway for oxidation of fuel molecules, including carbohydrates, fatty acids, and amino acids (PubMed:25210035). Can catalyze the decarboxylation of 2-oxoadipate in vitro, but at a much lower rate than 2-oxoglutarate (PubMed:28435050). Mainly active in the mitochondrion (PubMed:29211711). A fraction of the 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex also localizes in the nucleus and is required for lysine succinylation of histones: associates with KAT2A on chromatin and provides succinyl-CoA to histone succinyltransferase KAT2A (PubMed:29211711).

Performance Characteristics

REPEATABILITY	Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay)：CV% < 8% Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on 1 plate to assess intra-assay precision. Inter-assay Precision (precision between assays)：CV% < 10% Three samples of known concentration were tested in forty separate assays to assess inter-assay precision.
SENSITIVITY	The minimum detectable dose was 0.54ng/mL.
ASSAY RANGE	1.57–100ng/mL
SPECIFICITY	This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human OGDH. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human OGDH and analogues was observed.
