uniprot entry name :
GRP78_HUMAN
specificity :
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of GRP78. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between GRP78 and analogues was observed. NOTE: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible for us to complete the cross-reactivity detection between GRP78 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: 0.1 ng/mL.
products description :
Intended Uses: This GRP78 ELISA kit is a 1.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed for the quantitative determination of Human GRP78. This ELISA kit for research use only, not for therapeutic or diagnostic applications!. Principle of the Assay GRP78 ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a monoclonal anti-GRP78 antibody and an GRP78-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with GRP78-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 GRP78 concentration since GRP78 from samples and GRP78-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-GRP78 antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by GRP78 from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind GRP78-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The GRP78 concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.

ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) family. It is localized in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and is involved in the folding and assembly of proteins in the ER. As this protein interacts with many ER proteins, it may play a key role in monitoring protein transport through the cell.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]
uniprot summary :
GRP78: a member of the HSP family of molecular chaperones required for endoplasmic reticulum integrity and stress-induced autophagy. Plays a central role in regulating the unfolded protein response (UPR), and is an obligatory component of autophagy in mammalian cells. May play an important role in cellular adaptation and oncogenic survival. One of the client proteins of GRP78 is protein double-stranded RNA-activated protein-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK). Probably plays a role in facilitating the assembly of multimeric protein complexes inside the ER. Protein type: Heat shock protein; Chaperone. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 9q33.3.
