other gene names :
GLRX; GLRX; GRX; GRX1; GRX; TTase-1
uniprot entry name :
GLRX1_HUMAN
specificity :
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of GLRX. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between GLRX and analogues was observed. NOTE: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible for us to complete the cross-reactivity detection between GLRX and all the analogues, therefore, cross reaction may still exist in some cases.
storage stability :
Store all reagents at 2-8 degree C.
other info1 :
Samples: Serum, plasma, Cell Culture Supernatants, body fluid and tissue homogenate. Assay Type: Competitive. Sensitivity: 1.0 pg/mL.
other info2 :
Intended Uses: This GLRX ELISA kit is a 1.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed for the quantitative determination of Mouse GLRX. This ELISA kit for research use only, not for therapeutic or diagnostic applications!
products description :
. Principle of the assay: GLRX ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a monoclonal anti-GLRX antibody and an GLRX-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with GLRX-HRP conjugate in pre-coated plate for one hour. After the incubation period, the wells are decanted and washed five times. The wells are then incubated with a substrate for HRP enzyme. The product of the enzyme-substrate reaction forms a blue colored complex. Finally, a stop solution is added to stop the reaction, which will then turn the solution yellow. The intensity of color is measured spectrophotometrically at 450nm in a microplate reader. The intensity of the color is inversely proportional to the GLRX concentration since GLRX from samples and GLRX-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-GLRX antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by GLRX from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind GLRX-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The GLRX concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a member of the glutaredoxin family. The encoded protein is a cytoplasmic enzyme catalyzing the reversible reduction of glutathione-protein mixed disulfides. This enzyme highly contributes to the antioxidant defense system. It is crucial for several signalling pathways by controlling the S-glutathionylation status of signalling mediators. It is involved in beta-amyloid toxicity and Alzheimer's disease. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
