BSA and Azide free antibody pairs include unconjugated capture and detector antibodies suitable for sandwich ELISAs. The antibodies are provided at an approximate concentration of 1 mg\/ml as measured by the protein A280 method. The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Both capture and detector antibodies are rabbit monoclonal antibodies delivering consistent, specific, and sensitive results.\u003cbr\u003e\nFor additional information on the performance of the antibody pair, see the equivalent SimpleStep ELISA® Kit (\u003cbr\u003e\nab242235\u003cbr\u003e\n), which uses the same antibodies. However, due to differences in their formulation, this antibody pair cannot be used with the consumables provided with our SimpleStep ELISA Kits. Please note that the range provided for the pairs is only an estimation based on the performance of the related product using the same antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay.

Its precursor proinsulin is synthesized as a larger molecule with a mass of about 9 kDa. Both insulin and proinsulin are primarily expressed in the pancreatic islets of Langerhans. Proinsulin undergoes enzymatic cleavage to form mature insulin and C-peptide. Insulin plays an essential role in glucose metabolism by regulating cellular uptake of glucose.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nInsulin and proinsulin are indispensable for maintaining glucose homeostasis in the body. Insulin binds to its receptor a receptor tyrosine kinase on target cells like muscle and adipose tissue to facilitate glucose uptake. Proinsulin also has a lesser-known role in insulin regulation and folding. It mostly exists independently rather than being part of a complex with insulin but precursor and mature insulin forms can transiently appear together during synthesis and secretion.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nInsulin function fits significantly into the signaling pathways such as the insulin signaling pathway and the PI3K\/AKT pathway. These pathways importantly involve glucose transporters like GLUT4 and proteins such as IRS-1 that mediate insulin's effects on glucose and lipid metabolism. Insulin signals lead to the translocation of GLUT4 to the plasma membrane enhancing glucose uptake. Therefore insulin is closely related to these critical metabolic pathways.\u003cbr\u003e\nDysfunctions in insulin and proinsulin levels or actions are linked to conditions like diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome. In diabetes insulin resistance or deficiency leads to uncontrolled blood glucose levels highlighting the importance of insulin in glucose regulation. The link between insulin and obesity often involves dysregulation in insulin signaling pathways contributing to metabolic complications. Understanding these processes and their diseases is vital for developing therapeutic strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843604271273,"sku":"ab252685","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab252685","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
