Product details:
Human LAMP2 ELISA Kit ab302757 is a rapid single-wash 90-min Sandwich ELISA to measure Human LAMP2 in cell culture media, CSF, citrate plasma, EDTA plasma, heparin plasma, serum. This SimpleStep sensitivity is 18.248 pg/mL.
How the assay works
Human LAMP2 SimpleStep ELISA
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.
Assay Specificity
Our SimpleStep ELISA
kits use recombinant monoclonal antibodies rigorously validated to ensure the highest level of consistency and reproducibility, improved sensitivity and specificity and ease of scalability and security of supply.
Please refer to our protocol booklet for more details.

LAMP2 also known as CD107b is an important protein found in the lysosomal membrane. It plays a significant role in lysosome function facilitating autophagy and the degradation of cellular debris. LAMP2 proteins are expressed in most tissues especially in tissues with high lysosomal activity like the liver kidney and heart. The LAMP2 molecule has a molecular weight of approximately 45 kDa. Researchers frequently use LAMP2 staining and LAMP2 marker to study its cellular localization and expression levels.
Biological function summary
LAMP2 is essential for the normal fusion of lysosomes with autophagosomes. This process ensures the recycling of cellular components and maintenance of cellular homeostasis. LAMP2 acts in conjunction with other members of the lysosome-associated membrane protein family LAMP1 and LAMP3 forming part of a larger complex. This interaction is fundamental in managing the degradation pathways within the cell supporting processes such as lipid metabolism and protein turnover.
Pathways
The activity of LAMP2 is critical in the autophagic and degradation pathways within the cell. It particularly interacts in the autophagy-lysosome pathway where it aids the clearance of damaged organelles and protein aggregates. LAMP2 interaction with proteins such as the autophagy-related protein LC3 helps this degradation process. Additionally LAMP2 plays a role in endocytic pathways linking it to proteins involved in vesicle trafficking and membrane fusion.
Mutations or deficiencies in LAMP2 are associated with Danon disease a type of lysosomal storage disorder. Patients with Danon disease exhibit symptoms such as cardiomyopathy skeletal myopathy and intellectual disabilities. LAMP2 is also implicated in other lysosomal disorders with a connection to the malfunction of autophagy processes. Its dysfunction is often linked with proteins responsible for cellular degradation affecting the normal homeostatic balance and leading to the accumulation of autophagic substrates.
