products description :
Principle of the Assay: This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. Antibody specific for TPI1 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any TPI1 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for TPI1 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 TPI1 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 tropomyosin family of actin-binding proteins involved in the contractile system of striated and smooth muscles and the cytoskeleton of non-muscle cells. Tropomyosins are dimers of coiled-coil proteins that polymerize end-to-end along the major groove in most actin filaments. They provide stability to the filaments and regulate access of other actin-binding proteins. In muscle cells, they regulate muscle contraction by controlling the binding of myosin heads to the actin filament. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
uniprot summary :
TPM4: a cytoskeletal protein that binds to actin filaments in muscle and nonmuscle cells. Plays a central role, in association with the troponin complex, in the calcium dependent regulation of vertebrate striated muscle contraction. Smooth muscle contraction is regulated by interaction with caldesmon. In nonmuscle cells is implicated in stabilizing cytoskeleton actin filaments and endocytosis. Protein type: Motility/polarity/chemotaxis. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 19p13.1. Cellular Component: cortical cytoskeleton; filamentous actin; cytoskeleton; focal adhesion; membrane; stress fiber; podosome; cytosol; muscle thin filament tropomyosin. Molecular Function: structural constituent of muscle; calcium ion binding; actin binding. Biological Process: osteoblast differentiation; muscle contraction; cell motility; muscle filament sliding
