Sheep Telomerase Reverse Transcriptase (TERT) ELISA Kit

INQUIRY

CAT. NO.: TK067

General Info
Size	48-Strip-Wells / 96-Strip-Wells / 5×96-Strip-Wells / 10×96-Strip-Wells
Product Overview	This product constitutes a ready-to-use microwell and strip plate ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) Kit designed for the assessment of the Telomerase Reverse Transcriptase (TERT) ELISA Kit target analytes within biological samples. The concentration gradients of the Kit standards or positive controls render a theoretical Kit detection range in biological research samples containing TERT. The ELISA analytical biochemical technique of the Kit is based on TERT antibody-TERT antigen interactions (immunosorbency) and an HRP colorimetric detection system to detect TERT antigen targets in samples. It's important to note that this ELISA Kit is specifically tailored for detecting native, not recombinant TERT.
Storage Conditions	Store all reagents at 2-8°C
Notes	Occasionally, trace amounts of reagent may remain in the closure of the product vial during shipment and storage of the TERT 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.
Reactivity	Sheep
Shipping Conditions	Dry Ice

Product Details
Samples	Serum, Plasma, Cell Culture Supernatants, Body Fluid, Tissue Homogenate
Sample Preparation	We recommend preliminary experimentation using undiluted samples or dilutions at ratios of 1:2 or 1:4. Please refrain from exceeding a 1:10 dilution, as it surpasses the prescribed dilution threshold for this kit.

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]
