Human Arachidonate Lipoxygenase 3 (ALOXE3) ELISA Kit

Due to the possibility of mismatching between antigens from other origin and antibodies used in our kits (e.g., antibody targets conformational epitope rather than linear epitope), some native or recombinant proteins from other manufacturers may not be recognized by our products.

Principle of the Assay

The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to ALOXE3. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody preparation specific to ALOXE3. 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 ALOXE3, 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 ALOXE3 in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.

Target Information

Non-heme iron-containing lipoxygenase which is atypical in that it displays a prominent hydroperoxide isomerase activity and a reduced lipoxygenases activity (PubMed:12881489, PubMed:17045234, PubMed:20921226, PubMed:20923767). The hydroperoxide isomerase activity catalyzes the isomerization of hydroperoxides, derived from arachidonic and linoleic acid by ALOX12B, into hepoxilin-type epoxyalcohols and ketones (PubMed:12881489, PubMed:17045234, PubMed:20923767). In presence of oxygen, oxygenates polyunsaturated fatty acids, including arachidonic acid, to produce fatty acid hydroperoxides (PubMed:20921226). In the skin, acts downstream of ALOX12B on the linoleate moiety of esterified omega-hydroxyacyl-sphingosine (EOS) ceramides to produce an epoxy-ketone derivative, a crucial step in the conjugation of omega-hydroxyceramide to membrane proteins (PubMed:21558561). Therefore plays a crucial role in the synthesis of corneocytes lipid envelope and the establishment of the skin barrier to water loss (PubMed:21558561). In parallel, it may have a signaling function in barrier formation through the production of hepoxilins metabolites (PubMed:21558561). Also plays a role in adipocyte differentiation through hepoxilin A3 and hepoxilin B3 production which in turn activate PPARG (By similarity). Through the production of hepoxilins in the spinal cord, it may regulate inflammatory tactile allodynia (By similarity).

Performance Characteristics

REPEATABILITY

Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, middle, and high-level ALOXE3 were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively.
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): 3 samples with low, middle, and high-level ALOXE3 were tested on 3 different plates, with 8 replicates in each plate.
CV(%) = SD/meanX100

Intra-Assay: CV<10%
Inter-Assay: CV<12%

SENSITIVITY The minimum detectable dose was 0.114ng/mL.
ASSAY RANGE 0.312-20ng/mL
SPECIFICITY This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for the detection of ALOXE3.
No significant cross-reactivity or interference between ALOXE3 and analogs was observed.
Note:
Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible to perform all possible cross-reactivity detection tests between ALOXE3 and all analogs, therefore, cross reactivity may still exist.
