Rat Protein Phosphatase, Mg2+/Mn2+ Dependent 1A (PPM1A) 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 Rat PPM1A. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Rat PPM1A. 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 Rat PPM1A, 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 Rat PPM1A 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.

For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Target Information

Enzyme with a broad specificity. Negatively regulates TGF-beta signaling through dephosphorylating SMAD2 and SMAD3, resulting in their dissociation from SMAD4, nuclear export of the SMADs and termination of the TGF-beta-mediated signaling (By similarity). Dephosphorylates PRKAA1 and PRKAA2. Plays an important role in the termination of TNF-alpha-mediated NF-kappa-B activation through dephosphorylating and inactivating IKBKB/IKKB (By similarity).

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 0.121ng/mL.
ASSAY RANGE	0.32–20ng/mL
SPECIFICITY	This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Rat PPM1A. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Rat PPM1A and analogues was observed.
