Deionized or distilled water. 500 mL graduated cylinders. Test tubes for dilution.

Application Details

Application Notes: Before using Kit, spin tubes and bring down all components to bottom of tube. Duplicate well assay was recommended for both standard and sample testing.

Sample Volume: 100 μL

Plate: Pre-coated

Protocol: ELISA Kit is based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. An antibody has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection antibody specific for target is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the target amount in sample captured in plate.

Target Details for Cathepsin L

Target: Cathepsin L (CTSL1) (Cathepsin L1 (CTSL1))

Alternative Name: CTSL

Background:

Background: Cathepsin L is an important lysosomal endopeptidase enzyme which is involved in the initiation of protein degradation. It also shows the most potent collagenolytic and elastinolytic activity in vitro of any of the cathepsins. The gene is mapped to 9q21-q22. It is a member of the Peptidase C1 family, which play an important role in diverse processes including normal lysosome mediated protein turnover, antigen and proprotein processing, and apoptosis. Cathepsin L has been reported in many organisms including fish, birds and mammals.

Gene Full Name: cathepsin L

Gene ID: 1514

UniProt: P07711

Pathways: Activation of Innate immune Response, Toll-Like Receptors Cascades
