ELISA kit for Rat Transmembrane protease serine 9 (TMPRSS9)

Quantitative sandwich ELISA for measuring Rat Transmembrane protease serine 9 (TMPRSS9) in samples from cell culture supernatants, serum, whole blood, plasma and other biological fluids.

TMPRSS9 contains a predicted type II transmembrane segment, an LDLR domain, and 3 protease domains, which they called serase-1, -2, and -3. The C-terminal serase-3 domain is predicted to be catalytically inactive. TMPRSS9 shares approximately 80% amino acid identity with both mouse and rat Tmprss9, and the protease domains share 40% to 48% amino acid identity with matriptase (ST14) and matriptase-2 (TMPRSS6). Northern blot analysis detected a 5.4-kb transcript in all adult tissues examined, fetal kidney, liver, lung, and brain, and in several tumor cell lines. Minor transcripts of 3.8 and 2.4 kb were detected in adult skeletal muscle, liver, placenta, and heart. Immunofluorescence microscopy localized TMPRSS9 to the plasma membrane in COS-7 cells.

All of the components are shipped on ice packs/blue ice. Upon receiving the kit keep it at +4 degrees Celsius for up to 1 year (refer to the label on the box for the exact expiration date).
