Human Antigen Peptide Transporter 2 (TAP2) ELISA Kit | TAP2 elisa kit
Human Antigen Peptide Transporter 2 (TAP2) 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 membrane-associated protein encoded by TAP2 is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). Antigen peptide transporter 2 is a member of the MDR/TAP subfamily. Members of the MDR/TAP subfamily are involved in multidrug resistance. This gene is located 7 kb telomeric to gene family member ABCB2. Antigen peptide transporter 2 is involved in antigen presentation. Antigen peptide transporter 2 forms a heterodimer with ABCB2 in order to transport peptides from the cytoplasm to the endoplasmic reticulum. Mutations in TAP2 may be associated with ankylosing spondylitis, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, and celiac disease. Alternative splicing of this gene produces products which differ in peptide selectivity and level of restoration of surface expression of MHC class I molecules.

Uniprot Description
TAP2: a 'transporter associated with antigen processing' (TAP) protein. Member of the ATP binding cassette (ABC) family of transmembrane transporters. Transports peptides across the endoplasmic reticulum membrane for assembly of major histocompatibility complex class I molecules. Two subunits, TAP1 and TAP2, are required for peptide transport. ATP hydrolysis is important for transport activity. Nascent MHC class I molecules associate with TAP via tapasin.

Product Notes
The Human TAP2 tap2 (Catalog #AAA9714138) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9714138 ELISA Kit recognizes Human TAP2. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Antigen Peptide Transporter 2 (TAP2), 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
