products description :
Principle of the Assay: This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. Antibody specific for GPX4 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any GPX4 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for GPX4 is added to the wells. After washing, avidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of GPX4 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a member of the glutathione peroxidase protein family. Glutathione peroxidase catalyzes the reduction of hydrogen peroxide, organic hydroperoxide, and lipid peroxides by reduced glutathione and functions in the protection of cells against oxidative damage. Plasma glutathione peroxidase has been shown to be a selenium-containing enzyme and the UGA codon is translated into a selenocysteine. A similar protein in rat has been identified as a moonlighting protein based on its ability to serve dual functions as a peroxidase as well as a structural protein in mature spermatozoa. Disruption of this gene in spermatocytes is associated with male infertility. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Two pseudogenes of this gene have been defined on chromosomes 10 and 17. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]
uniprot summary :
GPX4: Protects cells against membrane lipid peroxidation and cell death. Required for normal sperm development and male fertility. Could play a major role in protecting mammals from the toxicity of ingested lipid hydroperoxides. Essential for embryonic development. Protects from radiation and oxidative damage. Belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative initiation.
