It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Human AG-2 with 3.7 pg\/ml sensitivity.\u003cbr\u003e\nSimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:\u003cbr\u003e\n- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less\u003cbr\u003e\n- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies\u003cbr\u003e\n- Fully validated in biological samples\u003cbr\u003e\n- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips\u003cbr\u003e\nA 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (\u003cbr\u003e\nab203359\u003cbr\u003e\n) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.\u003cbr\u003e\nREACH authorisation\u003cbr\u003e\nAbcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions-+4°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions-+4°C, Storage information-+4°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nAnterior Gradient 2 (AG2) also known as AGR2 is a protein with a molecular weight of approximately 20 kDa. This protein is a member of the protein disulfide isomerase family and has an important mechanical role in facilitating protein folding within the endoplasmic reticulum. The protein exists mainly in epithelial tissues and notably in the gastrointestinal tract with high expression also found in the pancreas and lungs. AG2 is characterized by its interaction with various client proteins assisting in their proper folding and stability.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe anterior gradient protein influences cellular processes such as proliferation and differentiation often playing a role in cellular adhesion and migration. This protein does not work alone but instead can form complexes with other molecules enhancing its functional capabilities. Such interactions highlight its significance in maintaining normal cell physiology and response to external stimuli.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nAnterior gradient protein participates in key signaling pathways including the Wnt signaling pathway and the unfolded protein response (UPR). Through these pathways AG2 associates with proteins like β-catenin influencing gene transcription and cellular outcomes. In the UPR its role is important in managing cellular stress and maintaining homeostasis by regulating protein folding and quality control mechanisms.\u003cbr\u003e\nAnterior gradient protein shows strong associations with cancer particularly in tumors such as breast and lung cancer where it is often overexpressed. Its involvement links closely with proteins like MUC1 which is found in tumors suggesting a role in promoting cancer progression and metastasis. Additionally AG2 can be related to inflammatory bowel diseases where its dysregulation may result in epithelial barrier dysfunction and contribute to the pathology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843590181033,"sku":"ab240687","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab240687","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
