Human Myosin Heavy Chain 8, Skeletal Muscle,Perinatal (MYH8) ELISA Kit

The MYH8 perinatal skeletal muscle myosin heavy chain enzyme immunoassay from Assay Genie is configured as a complete quantitative ELISA kit supplied in a 96 assays format, intended for research use only. MYH8 encodes a myosin heavy chain isoform transiently expressed during fetal and perinatal skeletal muscle development and is largely replaced by adult isoforms after birth. Mutations in MYH8 have been linked through genetic studies to distal arthrogryposis syndromes, including Freeman-Sheldon syndrome (DA2B) and trismus-pseudocampylodactyly syndrome, making quantitative MYH8 measurement useful in neuromuscular and developmental biology research programs. The assay accepts a broad range of human-derived sample matrices, including tissue homogenates and cell culture supernatants, delivering absorbance-based readouts that laboratories can quantify against a standard curve. Researchers investigating myosin isoform switching during development, congenital myopathy biomarkers, and skeletal muscle regeneration models will find this kit a relevant addition to their workflow. Each kit ships with the reagents and protocol needed to perform the immunoassay procedure, supporting reproducible quantification of this developmental myosin marker across experimental replicates.
