| Short Description: |
This POMC Sandwich ELISA Kit is an in-vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the measurement of samples in rat cell culture supernatant, serum and plasma (EDTA, citrate, heparin). |
| Storage Instruction: |
Store the unopened kit in the fridge at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. Once opened store individual kit contents according to components table provided with the kit. |
| Assay Time: |
4.5 hrs |
| Gene Symbol: |
PomcUniprot ID=COLI_RAT" |
| Sample Type: |
serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernates or other biological fluids. |
| Tissue Specificity | ACTH and MSH are produced by the pituitary gland. |
| Post Translational Modifications | Specific enzymatic cleavages at paired basic residues yield the different active peptides. |
| Function | Corticotropin: Stimulates the adrenal glands to release cortisol. Melanocyte-stimulating hormone alpha: Anorexigenic peptide. Increases the pigmentation of skin by increasing melanin production in melanocytes. Melanocyte-stimulating hormone beta: Increases the pigmentation of skin by increasing melanin production in melanocytes. Beta-endorphin: Endogenous orexigenic opiate. Met-enkephalin: Endogenous opiate. |
