Usage Notes
* Do not mix components from different kit lots or use reagents beyond the kit expiration date.
* 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.
Preparation and Storage
Store at 2-8 degree C.

Related Product Information for SILV elisa kit
Description: This Human Melanocyte protein PMEL (SILV) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate SILV in samples. An antibody specific for SILV has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any SILV present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for SILV is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of SILV bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Background: Melanocyte protein PMEL (SILV) encodes a melanocyte-specific type I transmembrane glycoprotein. The encoded protein is enriched in melanosomes, which are the melanin-producing organelles in melanocytes, and plays an essential role in the structural organization of premelanosomes. Premelanosome protein is involved in generating internal matrix fibers that define the transition from Stage I to Stage II melanosomes. Premelanosome protein undergoes a complex pattern of prosttranslational processing and modification that is essential to the proper functioning of the protein. A secreted form of premelanosome protein that is released by proteolytic ectodomain shedding may be used as a melanoma-specific serum marker. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

NCBI Description

The encoded protein is enriched in melanosomes, which are the melanin-producing organelles in melanocytes, and plays an essential role in the structural organization of premelanosomes. This protein is involved in generating internal matrix fibers that define the transition from Stage I to Stage II melanosomes.

Uniprot Description

SILV: Plays a central role in the biogenesis of melanosomes. Involved in the maturation of melanosomes from stage I to II. The transition from stage I melanosomes to stage II melanosomes involves an elongation of the vesicle, and the appearance within of distinct fibrillar structures. Release of the soluble form, ME20-S, could protect tumor cells from antibody mediated immunity. Belongs to the PMEL/NMB family. 5 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 12q13-q14

Cellular Component: Golgi apparatus; endoplasmic reticulum membrane; plasma membrane; melanosome; integral to membrane; extracellular region

Molecular Function: protein binding

Biological Process: melanin biosynthetic process; melanosome organization and biogenesis

Product Notes

The Human SILV pmel (Catalog #AAA9714323) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9714323 ELISA Kit recognizes Human SILV. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Melanocyte Protein PMEL (SILV), 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.
