Human Scavenger Receptor Class A Member 5 (SCARA5) ELISA Kit | SCARA5 elisa kit
Human Scavenger Receptor Class A Member 5 (SCARA5) ELISA Kit
* 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.
Background: Scara5, encoding a deduced 491-amino acid protein that shares 88% sequence identity with the 495-amino acid human ortholog. Although overall identity with Scara1 is about 25%, Scara5 and Scara1 share many features, including an N-terminal cytoplasmic domain followed by a predicted transmembrane domain, a spacer region with several putative glycosylation sites, a collagenous domain, a hinge region, and a C-terminal scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain (SRCR). The SCARA5 protein was predicted to be trimeric, as are other collagenous transmembrane proteins, and this prediction was supported by Western blotting. Based on similarity to other members of this family, the trimer is present on the surface of the plasma membrane and anchored by the transmembrane domain.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
SCARA5: Ferritin receptor that mediates non-transferrin- dependent delivery of iron. Mediates cellular uptake of ferritin- bound iron by stimulating ferritin endocytosis from the cell surface with consequent iron delivery within the cell. Delivery of iron to cells by ferritin is required for the development of specific cell types, suggesting the existence of cell type- specific mechanisms of iron traffic in organogenesis, which alternatively utilize transferrin or non-transferrin iron delivery pathways. Ferritin mediates iron uptake in capsule cells of the developing kidney. Binds preferrentially ferritin light chain (FTL) compared to heavy chain (FTH1). Belongs to the SCARA5 family. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 8p21.1

Product Notes
The Human SCARA5 scara5 (Catalog #AAA9714412) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9714412 ELISA Kit recognizes Human SCARA5. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Scavenger Receptor Class A Member 5 (SCARA5), 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
