Human Mitoferrin-1 (SLC25A37) ELISA Kit | MFRN elisa kit
Human Mitoferrin-1 (SLC25A37) 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: SLC25A37 belongs to the SLC25 family of mitochondrial carrier proteins.Shaw et al. (2006) cloned mouse Slc25a37, which they called mitoferrin. Northern blot analysis detected expression in all tissues examined, with highest levels in hematopoietic organs, fetal liver, bone marrow, and spleen. In developing mouse embryos, mitoferrin was first detected at embryonic day 7.5 in the extraembryonic yolk sac, coincident with the appearance of blood islands. By searching databases for SLC25 family members, Haitina et al. (2006) identified 2 splice variants of SLC25A37. The deduced protein contains 351 amino acids.SLC25A37 gene maps to chromosome 8p21. The mouse Slc25a37 gene maps to chromosome 14.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
SLC25A37 is a solute carrier localized in the mitochondrial inner membrane. It functions as an essential iron importer for the synthesis of mitochondrial heme and iron-sulfur clusters (summary by Chen et al., 2009 [PubMed 19805291]).[supplied by OMIM, Jan 2011]
Uniprot Description
SLC25A37: Mitochondrial iron transporter that specifically mediates iron uptake in developing erythroid cells, thereby playing an essential role in heme biosynthesis. The iron delivered into the mitochondria, presumably as Fe(2+), is then probably delivered to ferrochelatase to catalyze Fe(2+) incorporation into protoprophyrin IX to make heme. Belongs to the mitochondrial carrier family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Human MFRN slc25a37 (Catalog #AAA9715991) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9715991 ELISA Kit recognizes Human MFRN. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Mitoferrin-1 (SLC25A37), 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
