Application: ABCD1, also known as adrenoleukodystrophy protein (ALDP), is a member of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily. ALDP is a multi-pass membrane protein and localized at peroxisome membrane. Various mutations of ABCD1 gene cause X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD), an inherited neurodegenerative disease affecting the nervous system white matter and adrenal cortex. It results in mental deterioration, corticospinal tract dysfunction, and cortical blindness. ALDP is supposed to function as a homodimer allowing the entry of CoA-esters of very-long chain fatty acids into the peroxisome, the unique site of their β-oxidation. However, the defined function of ALDP has not been well investigated so far.

This test kit is a solid phase sandwich Enzyme Linked-Immuno-Sorbent Assay (Sandwich ELISA). The AFP ELISA kit is to be used to detect and quantify protein levels of endogenous AFP. The assay recognizes human AFP. An antibody specific for AFP has been pre-coated onto the microwells. The AFP protein in samples is captured by the coated antibody after incubation. Following extensive washing, another antibody of biotinylated specific for AFP is added to detect the captured AFP protein. For signal development, Streptavidin-HRP is added, followed by Tetramethyl-benzidine (TMB) reagent. Solution containing sulfuric acid is used to stop color development and the color intensity which is proportional to the quantity of bound protein is measurable at 450nm with the correction wavelength set at 630 nm.
