Rat Renal Tumor Antigen (RAGE) ELISA Kit | RAGE elisa kit
Rat Renal Tumor Antigen (RAGE) ELISA Kit
* Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.
* Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.
* Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 degree C in the sealed bag provided.
* Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.
* It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.
Background: Tumor antigens recognized by cytolytic T cells (CTLs) can be classified into 4 groups: shared tumor-specific antigens encoded by MAGE-type genes that are silent in most normal tissues except testis and expressed in many tumors; differentiation antigens that are also expressed in normal cells; antigens resulting from tumor-specific point mutations; and antigens overexpressed in tumor cells. By screening cells expressing both HLA-B7 and kidney tumor cell RNA with autologous CTLs, followed by anchored PCR analysis, Gaugler et al. (1996) isolated a cDNA encoding RAGE. RT-PCR analysis detected expression only in retina and in a number of tumor cell types. One putative RAGE open reading frame encodes a 40-amino acid protein and includes the peptide recognized by HLA-B7-restricted CTLs.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene belongs to the MAP kinase superfamily. The gene was found to be regulated by caudal type transcription factor 2 (Cdx2) protein. The encoded protein, which is localized to epithelial cells in the intestinal crypt, may play a role in growth arrest and differentiation of cells of upper crypt and lower villus regions. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]
Uniprot Description
MOK: a CMGC protein kinase of the RCK family. Possesses a Thr-Glu-Tyr motif in the activation loop domain, as do classical MAP kinases. Associates with and is apparently stabilized by HSP90.

Product Notes
The Rat RAGE mok (Catalog #AAA9711988) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9711988 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat RAGE. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Renal Tumor Antigen (RAGE), 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
