The test principle applied in this kit is Sandwich enzyme immunoassay. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to Rat HMGCR. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Rat HMGCR. Next,...

Protein function: Transmembrane glycoprotein that is the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis as well as in the biosynthesis of nonsterol isoprenoids that are essential for normal cell function including ubiquinone and geranylgeranyl proteins. [The UniProt Consortium]

Primers are provided as a 40 µl solution containing both primers at a final concentration of 50 µM in 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 0.1 mM EDTA. Dilute with water as needed prior to use. This amount is sufficient for 1000 x 20µl PCR reactions assuming a final primer concentration of 0.1 µM. Add cDNA template....
