Background: MyBioSource's human Cathepsin D ELISA Kit is based on the standard sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technology. This assay employs a monoclonal antibody form mouse specific for Cathepsin D coated on a 96-well plate. Standards (NSO, L21-L412) and test samples are added to the wells and Cathepsin D present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. A biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for Cathepsin D is added subsequently. After washing away the unbound biotinylated antibody with PBS or TBS buffer, Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex is added to the wells. The wells are again washed with PBS or TBS buffer to remove the unbound conjugates. HRP substrate TMB is used to visualize the HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB is catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changes into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow color is proportional to the human Cathepsin D captured onto the plate. This ELISA kit shows no cross-reactivity with other relevant proteins. Detection Range: 156 pg/ml - 10,000 pg/ml. Sensitivity: < 10 pg/ml.

NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a lysosomal aspartyl protease composed of a dimer of disulfide-linked heavy and light chains, both produced from a single protein precursor. This proteinase, which is a member of the peptidase C1 family, has a specificity similar to but narrower than that of pepsin A. Transcription of this gene is initiated from several sites, including one which is a start site for an estrogen-regulated transcript. Mutations in this gene are involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases, including breast cancer and possibly Alzheimer disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Product Notes
The Human CTSD ctsd (Catalog #AAA843398) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA843398 ELISA Kit recognizes Human CTSD. Quantitative protein detection, establishing normal range. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the CTSD ctsd for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Cathepsin D, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
