products description :
For samples: Serum, plasma, cell culture supernatants, body fluid and tissue homogenate . INTENDED USE This DRD2 ELISA kit is a 1.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed for the quantitative determination of Human DRD2. This ELISA kit for researchuse only, not for therapeutic or diagnostic applications! . PRINCIPLE OF THE ASSAY DRD2 ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a monoclonal anti-DRD2 antibody and an DRD2-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with DRD2-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 DRD2 concentration since DRD2 from samples and DRD2-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-DRD2 antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by DRD2 from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind DRD2-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The DRD2 concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes the D2 subtype of the dopamine receptor. This G-protein coupled receptor inhibits adenylyl cyclase activity. A missense mutation in this gene causes myoclonus dystonia; other mutations have been associated with schizophrenia. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms. A third variant has been described, but it has not been determined whether this form is normal or due to aberrant splicing. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
uniprot summary :
DRD2: Dopamine receptor whose activity is mediated by G proteins which inhibit adenylyl cyclase. Defects in DRD2 are associated with dystonia type 11 (DYT11); also known as alcohol-responsive dystonia. DYT11 is a myoclonic dystonia. Dystonia is defined by the presence of sustained involuntary muscle contractions, often leading to abnormal postures. DYT11 is characterized by involuntary lightning jerks and dystonic movements and postures alleviated by alcohol. Inheritance is autosomal dominant. The age of onset, pattern of body involvement, presence of myoclonus and response to alcohol are all variable. Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; Membrane protein, multi-pass; GPCR, family 1; Receptor, GPCR. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 11q23. Cellular Component: synaptic vesicle membrane; endocytic vesicle; axon; integral to plasma membrane; postsynaptic density; dendrite; plasma membrane; dendritic spine; acrosome; perikaryon; nerve terminal; lateral plasma membrane.
