* 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: Uroplakins (UPK) are integral membrane proteins that form 2-dimensional crystalline arrays termed urothelial plaques that cover more than 90% of the apical urothelial surface. The asymmetric unit membrane (AUM) forms the apical plaques of urothelium and is believed to strengthen the urothelial apical surface and prevent the cells from rupturing during bladder distention. The 4 major conserved integral membrane proteins of the AUM are UPK1A, UPK1B, UPK2, and UPK3A. UPK3A encodes a member of the uroplakin family, a group of transmembrane proteins that form complexes on the apical surface of the bladder epithelium. Mutations in this gene may be associated with renal adysplasia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the uroplakin family, a group of transmembrane proteins that form complexes on the apical surface of the bladder epithelium. Mutations in this gene may be associated with renal adysplasia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
Uniprot Description
UPK3A: Component of the asymmetric unit membrane (AUM); a highly specialized biomembrane elaborated by terminally differentiated urothelial cells. May play an important role in AUM-cytoskeleton interaction in terminally differentiated urothelial cells. It also contributes to the formation of urothelial glycocalyx which may play an important role in preventing bacterial adherence. Defects in UPK3A are a cause of renal adysplasia (RADYS); also known as renal agenesis or renal aplasia. Renal agenesis refers to the absence of one (unilateral) or both (bilateral) kidneys at birth. Bilateral renal agenesis belongs to a group of perinatally lethal renal diseases, including severe bilateral renal dysplasia, unilateral renal agenesis with contralateral dysplasia and severe obstructive uropathy. Belongs to the uroplakin-3 family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Human UPK3A upk3a (Catalog #AAA9713754) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9713754 ELISA Kit recognizes Human UPK3A. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Uroplakin-3a (UPK3A), 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
