Human Insulin receptor substrate 2 (IRS2) ELISA Kit

From Assay Genie, this high-quality Sandwich ELISA Kit is intended for the quantitative measurement of Human Insulin receptor substrate 2 (IRS2), also referred to as IRS-2. The kit uses a colorimetric detection method, is for research use only and is reactive with human samples.

The assay detects natural and recombinant human IRS2 in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids. Reported performance characteristics include a detection range of 0.625-40ng/mL, a sensitivity of 0.33ng/mL, an intra-assay CV of 5.2% and an inter-assay CV of 8.1%. Recovery is 94% (range 88-100%) for serum and 96% (range 90-102%) for plasma.

IRS2 is a cytoplasmic signalling molecule that may mediate the control of various cellular processes by insulin and interacts with PHIP. The associated UniProt entry is Q9Y4H2, with a reported molecular weight of 137,334 Da. The protein is localised to the cytoplasm and cytosol and is relevant to research areas including cancer.
