Monkey Prostaglandin D2 Synthase, Brain ELISA Kit

Cat. Num. AAA38613

• Gene Names: PTGDS; PDS; PGD2; PGDS; LPGDS; PGDS2; L-PGDS
• Reactivity: Monkey
• Synonyms: Prostaglandin D2 Synthase; Brain; Monkey Prostaglandin D2 Synthase; Brain ELISA Kit; PGD2S elisa kit

• Reactivity: Monkey
• Specificity: No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Monkey PGD2S and analogues was observed.
• Sequence Length: 190

• Samples: Serum, Plasma, Tissue Homogenate, Feces, Urine and Body Fluids
• Assay Type: Sandwich
• Detection Range: 31.2 pg/ml ~ 1000 pg/ml.
• Sensitivity: 5.0 pg/ml.
• Intended Uses: ELISA is a simple and highly sensitive method of analysis that allows for simultaneous and rapid quantification of a large number of samples. The assay is based on the specific recognition of the target compound (analyte/antigen) by antibodies which bind to the compound. The antigen-antibody complex is detected and measured with the aid of an enzyme-labeled antibody or antigen. Upon addition of a non-colored reagent, the enzyme produces a color reaction where the color intensity is directly or inversely proportional to the concentration of the analyte in the sample. This quantitative Sandwich ELISA kit is in tended to determinate PGD2S concentrations in Monkey serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, feces, urine and body fluids, and it is only for research, not for drug, household, therapeutic applications
• Intra-assay Precision: Intra-assay CV (%) is less than 15%.
• Inter-assay Precision: Inter-assay CV (%) is less than 15%. [CV(%) = SD/mean x100]
• Preparation and Storage: Store all reagents at 2-8 degree C

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene is a glutathione-independent prostaglandin D synthase that catalyzes the conversion of prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) to postaglandin D2 (PGD2). PGD2 functions as a neuromodulator as well as a trophic factor in the central nervous system. PGD2 is also involved in smooth muscle contraction/relaxation and is a potent inhibitor of platelet aggregation. This gene is preferentially expressed in brain. Studies with transgenic mice overexpressing this gene suggest that this gene may be also involved in the regulation of non-rapid eye movement sleep. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uniprot Description

PTGDS: Catalyzes the conversion of PGH2 to PGD2, a prostaglandin involved in smooth muscle contraction/relaxation and a potent inhibitor of platelet aggregation. Involved in a variety of CNS functions, such as sedation, NREM sleep and PGE2-induced allodynia, and may have an anti-apoptotic role in oligodendrocytes. Binds small non-substrate lipophilic molecules, including biliverdin, bilirubin, retinal, retinoic acid and thyroid hormone, and may act as a scavenger for harmful hydrophopic molecules and as a secretory retinoid and thyroid hormone transporter. Possibly involved in development and maintenance of the blood-brain, blood-retina, blood-aqueous humor and blood-testis barrier. It is likely to play important roles in both maturation and maintenance of the central nervous system and male reproductive system. Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Lipocalin family.
