Rabbit Telomerase (TE) ELISA Kit

INQUIRY

CAT. NO.: TK058

General Info
Size	48-Strip-Wells / 96-Strip-Wells / 5×96-Strip-Wells / 10×96-Strip-Wells
Product Overview	This sandwich kit is designed for the precise quantitative detection of Rabbit Telomerase (also known as TE) in serum, plasma, cell culture supernates, cell lysates, tissue homogenates. This kit utilizes the Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) method. The plate has been pre-coated with Rabbit TE antibody. TE present in the sample is added and binds to antibodies coated on the wells. And then biotinylated Rabbit TE Antibody is added and binds to TE in the sample. Following this, Streptavidin-HRP is introduced and binds to the Biotinylated TE antibody. During a washing step, any unbound Streptavidin-HRP is removed. A substrate solution is then added, and color development occurs in proportion to the quantity of Rabbit TE. The reaction is halted by adding an acidic stop solution, and the absorbance is measured at 450 nm.
Storage Conditions	Store at 2 to 8°C for 6 months
Notes	Occasionally, trace amounts of reagent may remain in the closure of the product vial during shipment and storage of the TE ELISA kit. It is recommended that any liquid that may be present in the lid of the container be centrifuged to the bottom using a bench-top centrifuge prior to experimentation.

NCBI Summary	Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein polymerase that maintains telomere ends by addition of the telomere repeat TTAGGG. The enzyme consists of a protein component with reverse transcriptase activity, encoded by this gene, and an RNA component which serves as a template for the telomere repeat. Telomerase expression plays a role in cellular senescence, as it is normally repressed in postnatal somatic cells resulting in progressive shortening of telomeres. Deregulation of telomerase expression in somatic cells may be involved in oncogenesis. Studies in mouse suggest that telomerase also participates in chromosomal repair, since de novo synthesis of telomere repeats may occur at double-stranded breaks. Alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms of telomerase reverse transcriptase have been identified; the full-length sequence of some variants has not been determined. Alternative splicing at this locus is thought to be one mechanism of regulation of telomerase activity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
