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 QRFP elisa kit
Description: This Human Orexigenic neuropeptide QRFP (QRFP) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate QRFP in samples. An antibody specific for QRFP has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any QRFP present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for QRFP 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 QRFP bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

Background: P518 functions as a high-affinity ligand of GPR103. Both GPR103 and P518 precursor mRNA exhibited highest expression in brain.The 43-amino acid QRFP peptide, a longer form of the P518 peptide is necessary to exhibit full agonistic activity with GPR103. Intravenous administration QRFP caused release of aldosterone, suggesting that QRFP and GPR103 regulate adrenal function.The deduced 126-amino acid protein contains a putative N-terminal 22-amino acid signal peptide and no transmembrane domain, suggesting that the protein or cleavage products can be secreted. The 26-amino acid P518 peptide sequence is located at the C terminus of the precursor protein. In peripheral tissues, P518 precursor mRNA was detected in prostate, testis, colon, thyroid, parathyroid, coronary artery, and bladder.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate multiple protein products. The encoded products are members of the RFamide family of neuropeptides, characterized by their common protein C-terminus consisting of an arginine (R) and an amidated phenylalanine (F). These products include the neuropeptides 26RFa and the N-terminally extended form, 43RFa. Both of these neuropeptides bind to the pyroglutamylated RFamide peptide receptor (QRFPR) and may regulate blood pressure, reproduction and food intake in rodents. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]

Product Notes

The Human QRFP qrfp (Catalog #AAA9714667) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9714667 ELISA Kit recognizes Human QRFP. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Orexigenic Neuropeptide QRFP (QRFP), 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.
