Human Kidney injury molecule 1 (Kim-1) ELISA Kit
Principle of the Assay: This assay employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate Kim-1 in Human serum, plasma, urine. An antibody specific for Kim-1 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any Kim-1 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for Kim-1 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 Kim-1 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane receptor for both human hepatitis A virus (HHAV) and TIMD4. The encoded protein may be involved in the moderation of asthma and allergic diseases. The reference genome represents an allele that retains a MTTVP amino acid segment that confers protection against atopy in HHAV seropositive individuals. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. Related pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 4, 12 and 19. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]
Uniprot Description
