Bovine Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase PP1-alpha catalytic subunit (PPP1CA) ELISA Kit

A competitive ELISA kit from Assay Genie intended for the quantitative measurement of serine/threonine-protein phosphatase PP1-alpha catalytic subunit (PPP1CA) in bovine samples, where it is also known by the synonym PP-1A. PPP1CA is described as a protein phosphatase that associates with over 200 regulatory proteins to form highly specific holoenzymes, and it is essential for cell division and the regulation of glycogen metabolism, muscle contractility and protein synthesis. Its dysregulation has been implicated in cancer, neurodegenerative disorders and cardiovascular disease, and the product is listed under the cardiovascular research area.

The kit has been validated for use with serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids, and detects natural and recombinant bovine PPP1CA. Manufacturer-reported performance figures include a detection range of 0.78-50 ng/ml and a sensitivity of 0.25 ng/ml. Intra-assay CV, inter-assay CV, linearity and recovery data are provided with the kit. Storage is at -20°C for most components (with certain items at 4°C), and the product is supplied for research use only.
