Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and Entactin present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-Human Entactin antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of Entactin bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.\u003cbr\u003e\nOptimization may be required with urine samples.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions--20°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions--20°C, Storage information--20°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nEntactin also known as nidogen-1 or NID1 is a significant glycoprotein of the extracellular matrix with a molecular mass of approximately 150 kDa. This protein is often referred to as nidogen and nidogen 1. It localizes mainly in basement membranes across various tissues. Entactin serves as an important structural component and mediator between other extracellular molecules contributing significantly to the maintenance and integrity of the basement membrane structure.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nEntactin interacts closely with laminin and type IV collagen within the extracellular matrix forming an important part of the basement membrane complex. This protein aids in the stabilization and linkage of these matrices playing an essential role in cellular adhesion and migration processes. By facilitating the structural assembly of basement membranes entactin supports cellular signaling pathways that are involved in tissue development and repair.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nEntactin acts within the integrin signaling pathway and the basement membrane formation pathway. It interacts with integrin receptors on the cell surface thereby influencing processes like cell adhesion and morphogenesis. Through these pathways entactin signals in coordination with laminins and collagens building a robust structural framework necessary for tissue integrity and function.\u003cbr\u003e\nEntactin's disruption has links to cancer and certain genetic disorders affecting basement membrane integrity. Aberrant expression or dysfunction of entactin can contribute to the progression of tumor invasion due to its pivotal role in cellular adhesion. Furthermore it associates with muscular dystrophies through interactions with laminins and collagens highlighting its importance in maintaining normal tissue architecture and function.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843781775529,"sku":"ab113338","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab113338","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
