Detection Method:Sandwich
Test principle:This assay employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate SLC4A5 in samples. An antibody specific for SLC4A5 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anySLC4A5 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for SLC4A5 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of SLC4A5 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
Product Overview:SLC4A5?is a member of the sodium bicarbonate cotransporter (NBC) family, part of the bicarbonate transporter superfamily. Sodium bicarbonate cotransporters are involved in intracellular pH regulation and electroneural or electrogenic sodium bicarbonate transport. This protein is thought to be an integral membrane protein. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, but the biological validity of some variants has not been determined.Highest expression observed in liver, spleen and testis; moderate expression in the choroid plexus, hippocampus, cerebrum and cerebellum of brain, and in kidney cortex and kidney medulla. Also observed in heart, pancreas, muscle, lung, placenta, stomach and small intestine.
