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

Background: Dreyling et al. (1996) identified a breakpoint on chromosome 11 involving the previously unknown gene, CALM. CALM has a very high homology to the murine clathrin assembly protein ap3. Mao et al. (2001) determined the crystal structure of the N-terminal domain (the NAP domain) of the Drosophila Lap protein, which is homologous to human PICALM. The structure revealed a novel fold consisting of a large double layer of sheets of 10 alpha helices and a unique site for binding phosphoinositides.This motif is found in other proteins predicted to have domains of similar structure (e.g., Huntingtin-interacting protein-1). The structure is in part similar to the epsin N-terminal (ENTH) domain, but epsin lacks the phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate-binding site.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a clathrin assembly protein, which recruits clathrin and adaptor protein complex 2 (AP2) to cell membranes at sites of coated-pit formation and clathrin-vesicle assembly. The protein may be required to determine the amount of membrane to be recycled, possibly by regulating the size of the clathrin cage. The protein is involved in AP2-dependent clathrin-mediated endocytosis at the neuromuscular junction. A chromosomal translocation t(10;11)(p13;q14) leading to the fusion of this gene and the MLLT10 gene is found in acute lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia and malignant lymphomas. The polymorphisms of this gene are associated with the risk of Alzheimer disease. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Product Notes

The Human PICALM picalm (Catalog #AAA9714878) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9714878 ELISA Kit recognizes Human PICALM. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Phosphatidylinositol-Binding Clathrin Assembly Protein (PICALM), 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.
