Human Membrane associated transporter protein (SLC45A2) ELISA Kit
Principle of the Assay: SLC44A1 ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a polyclonal anti-SLC44A1 antibody and an SLC44A1-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with SLC44A1-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 SLC44A1 concentration since SLC44A1 from samples and SLC44A1-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-SLC44A1 antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by SLC44A1 from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind SLC44A1-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The SLC44A1 concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a transporter protein that mediates melanin synthesis. The protein is expressed in a high percentage of melanoma cell lines. Mutations in this gene are a cause of oculocutaneous albinism type 4, and polymorphisms in this gene are associated with variations in skin and hair color. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
Uniprot Description
SLC45A2: Melanocyte differentiation antigen. May transport substances required for melanin biosynthesis. Defects in SLC45A2 are the cause of albinism oculocutaneous type 4 (OCA4). A disorder of pigmentation characterized by reduced biosynthesis of melanin in the skin, hair and eyes. Patients show reduced or lacking pigmentation associated with classic albinism ocular abnormalities, including decreased visual acuity, macular hypoplasia, optic dysplasia, atypical choroidal vessels, and nystagmus. Belongs to the glycoside-pentoside-hexuronide (GPH) cation symporter transporter (TC 2.A.2) family. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Human SLC45A2 slc45a2 (Catalog #AAA7249261) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA7249261 ELISA Kit recognizes Human SLC45A2. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Membrane associated transporter protein (SLC45A2), 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
