Description
Background
Tropomyosin receptor kinase A(TrkA) are efficacious in attenuating skeletal pain.1 TrkA mutants were able to activate signaling cascades and were even more efficient in promoting neurite outgrowth than the wild-type receptor.2 TrkA is part of a sub-family of protein kinases which includes TrkB and TrkC. Also, there are other neurotrophic factors structurally related to NGF: BDNF(for Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor), NT-3(for Neurotrophin-3) and NT-4(for Neurotrophin-4). While TrkA mediates the effects of NGF, TrkB is bound and activated by BDNF, NT-4, and NT-3. Further, TrkC binds and is activated by NT-3.3 TrkA receptor was found in keratoconus-affected corneas, along with an increased level of repressor isoform of Sp3 transcription factor.4 The standard product used in this kit is extracellular part(A33-P418) of recombinant rat TRKA, consisting of 386 amino acids with the molecular weight of 69KDa.
Application Note
Useful in Sandwich ELISA for Quantitative Detection of Antigen. Aliquot 0.1ml per well of the 10000pg/ml, 5000pg/ml, 2500pg/ml, 1250pg/ml, 625pg/ml, 312pg/ml, 156pg/ml rat TrkA standard solutions into the precoated 96-well plate. Add 0.1ml of the sample diluent buffer into the control well (Zero well). Add 0.1ml of each properly diluted sample of rat cell culture supernates, cell lysates or tissue lysates to each empty well. It is recommended that each rat TrkA standard solution and each sample be measured in duplicate.
Purity/Specificity
Natural and recombinant rat TrkA. There is no detectable cross-reactivity with other relevant proteins.
