Human MT-CO2 (Cytochrome c oxidase subunit 2) ELISA KIT (HUFI08205)

The MT-CO2 gene encodes subunit 2 of cytochrome c oxidase, the terminal enzyme (Complex IV) of the mitochondrial electron transport chain. Because MT-CO2 is encoded by mitochondrial DNA, its expression is often used as an indicator of mitochondrial content, biogenesis, and respiratory chain integrity in human samples. The Assay Genie human MT-CO2 ELISA kit provides a quantitative immunoassay workflow for measuring this mitochondrial protein in human research specimens, with applications in studies of oxidative phosphorylation, mitochondrial myopathies, and mtDNA-associated disorders.

Reagents are supplied in a configuration sized for 96 assays, run on a standard microplate with an absorbance-based readout. Each kit provides the components needed for the immunoassay workflow under typical laboratory conditions, and the product is labeled for research use only in non-clinical settings. Researchers can pair this MT-CO2 measurement with assays for other respiratory chain subunits or mitochondrial markers to build a fuller picture of mitochondrial function in their experimental system.
