Human VMP1 (Vacuole membrane protein 1) ELISA KIT (HUFI04800)

VMP1, also annotated as TMEM49, is a multi-pass transmembrane protein best characterized for driving autophagosome biogenesis, mediating ER-membrane phospholipid remodeling during nutrient stress, and modulating programmed cell death cascades. Investigators studying pancreatic acinar cell injury, hepatitis C virus host-factor biology, tumor survival under hypoxic stress, and ER-stress-linked neurodegeneration routinely monitor VMP1 as a marker of canonical autophagy induction. This Assay Genie colorimetric immunoassay provides a quantitative readout of human VMP1 in research samples.

Configured as a 96-assay microplate and read on a standard absorbance plate reader, the kit supplies all reagents required for a complete immunoassay workflow. Reconstituted components should be refrigerated, and unused strip wells resealed with desiccant to preserve binding activity through the stated shelf life. Researchers comparing VMP1 induction against LC3-II conversion or p62 turnover can integrate this readout into broader autophagy-pathway analyses, while those focused on pancreatitis models or hepatitis C virus host-factor work can use it to track VMP1 modulation in their specific system.
