Human Metallothionein 1E (MT1E) ELISA Kit

Metallothionein 1E (MT1E) is a low-molecular-weight (~6-7 kDa) cysteine-rich protein that coordinates heavy metals such as zinc, copper, and cadmium through thiolate clusters. This Assay Genie kit supports research in metal homeostasis, oxidative stress biology, and heavy-metal toxicology. MT1E is frequently examined in oncology studies, where promoter hypermethylation has been linked to hepatocellular carcinoma and breast tumor progression, and in nephrology and hepatology models of metal-induced injury. The assay is suited for in vitro and in vivo research workflows, including cell culture supernatant analysis and tissue homogenate quantification. Standard storage at 4 degrees C preserves reagent activity through the stated shelf life; protect from light and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles of the reconstituted standards. Each kit is supplied as a complete pack of reagents in a single-use microplate configuration.
