The Mouse (LTBP2) Latent Transforming Growth Factor Beta Binding Protein 2 ELISA Kit measures latent transforming growth factor beta binding protein 2 in Mouse samples. The plate has been pre-coated with Mouse LTBP2 antibody. LTBP2 present in the sample is added and binds to antibodies coated on the wells. And then biotinylated Mouse LTBP2 Antibody is added and binds to LTBP2 in the sample. Then Streptavidin-HRP is added and binds to the Biotinylated LTBP2 antibody. After incubation unbound Streptavidin-HRP is washed away during a washing step. Substrate solution is then added and color develops in proportion to the amount of Mouse LTBP2. The reaction is terminated by addition of acidic stop solution and absorbance is measured at 450 nm.
BackgroundLatent-transforming growth factor beta-binding protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LTBP2 gene. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of latent transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta binding proteins (LTBP), which are extracellular matrix proteins with multi-domain structure. This protein is the largest member of the LTBP family possessing unique regions and with most similarity to the fibrillins. It has thus been suggested that it may have multiple functions: as a member of the TGF-beta latent complex, as a structural component of microfibrils, and a role in cell adhesion.
