Mouse TGF beta 1 ELISA Kit (RMEK-0153976)

Cat. No.: RMEK-0153976

Category: ELISA Kits

INQUIRY 1 x 96 tests
TGF beta 1 Mouse in vitro ELISA kit is designed for accurate quantitative measurement of Mouse TGF beta 1 concentrations in Cell culture supernatant, serum and plasma (EDTA, citrate). Mouse TGF beta 1 specific antibodies have been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards and test samples are added to the wells and then incubated at room temperature. After washing, a Biotin-conjugated anti-Mouse TGF beta 1 detection antibody is added then incubated at room temperature. Following washing Streptavidin-HRP conjugate is added to each well, incubated at room temperature then again washed. TMB is added and then catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changes into yellow after the addition of an acidic stop solution. The density of yellow coloration is directly proportional to the amount of Mouse TGF beta 1 captured on the plate.

Target Information

Target Symbol TGF beta 1
UniProt ID P01137
Function Multifunctional protein that controls proliferation, differentiation and other functions in many cell types. Many cells synthesize TGFB1 and have specific receptors for it. It positively and negatively regulates many other growth factors. It plays an important role in bone remodeling as it is a potent stimulator of osteoblastic bone formation, causing chemotaxis, proliferation and differentiation in committed osteoblasts.
Cellular Localization Secreted > extracellular space > extracellular matrix.
Post-transcriptional Modifications Glycosylated.The precursor is cleaved into mature TGF-beta-1 and LAP, which remains non-covalently linked to mature TGF-beta-1 rendering it inactive.
Involvement in Disease Defects in TGFB1 are the cause of Camurati-Engelmann disease (CE); also known as progressive diaphyseal dysplasia 1 (DPD1). CE is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by hyperostosis and sclerosis of the diaphyses of long bones. The disease typically presents in early childhood with pain, muscular weakness and waddling gait, and in some cases other features such as exophthalmos, facial paralysis, hearing difficulties and loss of vision.
