products description :
Intended Uses: This ChAT ELISA kit is a 1.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed for the quantitative determination of Porcine ChAT. This ELISA kit for research use only, not for therapeutic or diagnostic applications!. Principle of the Assay: ChAT ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a monoclonal anti-ChAT antibody and an ChAT-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with ChAT-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 ChAT concentration since ChAT from samples and ChAT-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-ChAT antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by ChAT from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind ChAT-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The ChAT concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.

ncbi summary :
Cholecystokinin is a brain/gut peptide. In the gut, it induces the release of pancreatic enzymes and the contraction of the gallbladder. In the brain, its physiologic role is unclear. The cholecystokinin pro-hormone is processed by endo- and exo-proteolytic cleavages. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
uniprot summary :
CCK: This peptide hormone induces gall bladder contraction and the release of pancreatic enzymes in the gut. Its function in the brain is not clear. Binding to CCK-A receptors stimulates amylase release from the pancreas, binding to CCK-B receptors stimulates gastric acid secretion. Belongs to the gastrin/cholecystokinin family.
