uniprot entry name :
CATD_HUMAN
specificity :
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of CTSD. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between CTSD and analogues was observed. NOTE: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible for us to complete the cross-reactivity detection between CTSD 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 :

products description :
Principle of the assay: CTSD ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a monoclonal anti-CTSD antibody and an CTSD-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with CTSD-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 CTSD concentration since CTSD from samples and CTSD-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-CTSD antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by CTSD from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind CTSD-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The CTSD concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a lysosomal aspartyl protease composed of a dimer of disulfide-linked heavy and light chains, both produced from a single protein precursor. This proteinase, which is a member of the peptidase C1 family, has a specificity similar to but narrower than that of pepsin A. Transcription of this gene is initiated from several sites, including one which is a start site for an estrogen-regulated transcript. Mutations in this gene are involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases, including breast cancer and possibly Alzheimer disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
