Human Fucosyltransferase 6 (FUT6) ELISA Kit
Principle of the Assay
The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to FUT6. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody preparation specific to FUT6. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After the TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain FUT6, biotin-conjugated antibody, and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution, and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm ± 10nm. The concentration of FUT6 in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
For Use with serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Target Information
Isoform 1Catalyzes the transfer of L-fucose, from a guanosine diphosphate-beta-L-fucose, to the N-acetyl glucosamine (GlcNAc) of a distal alpha2,3 sialylated lactosamine unit of a glycoprotein- or a glycolipid-linked sialopolylactosamines chain or of a distal or internal lactosamine unit of a neutral glycoprotein- or a glycolipid-linked polylactosamines chain through an alpha-1,3 glycosidic linkage and participates in surface expression of the sialyl Lewis X (sLe(x)), Lewis X (Le(x)) and non sialylated VIM2 determinants (PubMed:9451035, PubMed:1520296, PubMed:1339443, PubMed:7650030, PubMed:17604274, PubMed:9363434, PubMed:10728707, PubMed:29593094). Moreover transfers fucose to H-type 2 (Fucalpha1-2Galbeta1-4GlcNAc) chain acceptor substrates and participates in difucosylated sialyl Lewis x determinants (PubMed:17604274, PubMed:1339443). Also fucosylates a polylactosamine substrate having a 6 sulfate modification at the GlcNAc moiety and gives rise to sialyl and non-sialyl 6-sulfo lewis X (PubMed:10728707). Does not have activity towards type 1 ((Galbeta1-3GlcNAc)) and H-type 1 chain (Fucalpha1-2Galbeta1-3GlcNAc) acceptors substrates (PubMed:1339443, PubMed:17604274, PubMed:9363434).

Performance Characteristics
REPEATABILITY |
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, middle, and high-level FUT6 were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively. |
SENSITIVITY | The minimum detectable dose was 0.65ng/mL. |
ASSAY RANGE | 1.56-100ng/mL |
SPECIFICITY | This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for the detection of FUT6. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between FUT6 and analogs was observed. Note: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible to perform all possible cross-reactivity detection tests between FUT6 and all analogs, therefore, cross reactivity may still exist. |
