Mouse Regenerating Islet-Derived Protein 4 (REG4) ELISA Kit | REG4 elisa kit
Mouse Regenerating Islet-Derived Protein 4 (REG4) 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: The REG4 gene encodes a deduced 158-amino acid protein with an N-terminal signal peptide of 22 amino acids and a predicted molecular mass of 18.2 kD. REG4 maintains conservation of the 6 cysteine residues present in other known members of the REG family. By Northern blot analysis of intestinal mucosa from 12 individuals with inflammatory bowel disease, Hartupee et al. (2001) identified a 1.1-kb REG4 transcript in all samples. Control specimens had low but detectable expression of REG4. REG4 expression was significantly upregulated by inflammation and tissue injury associated with active Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis. RNA dot-blot analysis showed that most of the tissues expressing REG4 are in the gastrointestinal tract, i.e., colon, small intestine, stomach, and pancreas.

Product Notes
The Mouse REG4 reg4 (Catalog #AAA9717119) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9717119 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse REG4. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Regenerating Islet-Derived Protein 4 (REG4), 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
