Bovine Interferon-induced GTP-binding protein Mx1 (MX1) ELISA Kit
Principle of the Assay: MX1 ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a polyclonal anti-MX1 antibody and an MX1-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with MX1-HRP conjugate in pre-coated plate for one hour. After the incubation period, the wells are decanted and washed five times. The wells are then incubated with a substrate for HRP enzyme. The product of the enzyme-substrate reaction forms a blue colored complex. Finally, a stop solution is added to stop the reaction, which will then turn the solution yellow. The intensity of color is measured spectrophotometrically at 450nm in a microplate reader. The intensity of the color is inversely proportional to the MX1 concentration since MX1 from samples and MX1-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-MX1 antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by MX1 from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind MX1-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The MX1 concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-metabolizing protein that participates in the cellular antiviral response. The encoded protein is induced by type I and type II interferons and antagonizes the replication process of several different RNA and DNA viruses. There is a related gene located adjacent to this gene on chromosome 21, and there are multiple pseudogenes located in a cluster on chromosome 4. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

Product Notes
The Bovine MX1 mx1 (Catalog #AAA7218016) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA7218016 ELISA Kit recognizes Bovine MX1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Interferon-induced GTP-binding protein Mx1 (MX1), 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
