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.
* Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.

Related Product Information for PRDM8 elisa kit
Description: This Human PR domain zinc finger protein 8 (PRDM8) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate PRDM8 in samples. An antibody specific for PRDM8 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any PRDM8 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for PRDM8 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 PRDM8 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
Background: A family of PRDM proteins are similar to histone methyltransferases (HMTases) with SET domain in that they modulate different cellular processes, including transcriptional regulation, through chromatin modifying activities.In vitro HMTase assay and immunoblot analysis revealed that PRDM8 specifically methylates H3K9 of histones which indicates transcriptional repression activity of PRDM8. Direct recruitment of PRDM8 to the promoter mediated transcriptional repression and indicated no involvement of HDAC. Tissue blot analyses identified PRDM8 transcripts from brain and testis in adult mouse. PRDM8 repressed the expression of steroidogenic markers, p450c17c and LHR, which indicates its regulatory role in mouse testis development.

NCBI Description
This gene encodes a protein that belongs to a conserved family of histone methyltransferases that predominantly act as negative regulators of transcription. The encoded protein contains an N-terminal Su(var)3-9, Enhancer-of-zeste, and Trithorax (SET) domain and a double zinc-finger domain. Knockout of this gene in mouse results in mistargeting by neurons of the dorsal telencephalon, abnormal itch-like behavior, and impaired differentiation of rod bipolar cells. In humans, the protein has been shown to interact with the phosphatase laforin and the ubiquitin ligase malin, which regulate glycogen construction in the cytoplasm. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]

Product Notes
The Human PRDM8 prdm8 (Catalog #AAA9714849) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9714849 ELISA Kit recognizes Human PRDM8. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "PR Domain Zinc Finger Protein 8 (PRDM8), 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
