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

ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal acid sphingomyelinase that converts sphingomyelin to ceramide. The encoded protein also has phospholipase C activity. Defects in this gene are a cause of Niemann-Pick disease type A (NPA) and Niemann-Pick disease type B (NPB). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
