TRC-00791 | Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) (Human) ELISA Kit | 96 Well
Product Overview
A sandwich ELISA kit for the quantitative measurement of Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) in Serum, plasma, tissue homogenates and other biological fluids.
Tissue transglutaminase (tTG) crosslinks proteins between an ε-amino group of a lysine residue and a γ-carboxamide group of glutamine residue, creating an inter- or intramolecular bond that is highly resistant to proteolysis (protein degradation). Aside from its crosslinking function, tTG catalyzes other types of reactions including deamidation, GTP-binding/hydrolyzing, and isopeptidase activities. Tissue transglutaminase can be found both in the intracellular and the extracellular spaces of various types of tissues and is found in many different organs including the heart, the liver, and the small intestine. Intracellular tTG is abundant in the cytosol but smaller amounts can also be found in the nucleus and the mitochondria. 96Trace’s tTG ELISA kit is a sandwich ELISA assay for the quantitative measurement of tTG in human serum, plasma and cell culture supernatants. The density of color is proportional to the amount of tTG captured from the samples.
Applications
