Background:  Kallikrein-6 (KLK-6) is a secretory protein with serine protease activity that is regulated by steroid hormones and implicated in carcinogenesis and amyloid
precursor protein cleavage.  Kallikrein-6 also cleaves myelin basic protein, gelatin, casein and extracellular matrix proteins such as fibronectin, laminin, vitronectin and collagen.  Furthermore, Kallikrein-6 cleaves alpha-synuclein and prevents its polymerization. Kallikrein-6 is detected with gray matter neurons and colocalizes with pathological inclusions such as Lewy bodies and glial cytoplasmic inclusions.

Methods Overview:  The included ELISA 96-well micro-strip plate is provided pre-coated with  affinity purified rabbit polyclonal antibody selective to antigen. Upon addition of samples to the wells, the antigen in solution binds to the antibody and becomes indirectly linked to the solid support.  After washes of unbound materials, a second affinity purified polyclonal antibody conjugated with horse-radish peroxidase (HRP) is added, followed by a second incubation period.  Unbound antibody is washed, and then color reagents are added, which upon conversion by HRP, become blue colored.  A stop solution is added to block further reaction between HRP and the colorimetric substrates, converting the solution into a yellow coloration.  An absorbance multiplate reader is used to quantitate the colorimetric reaction at 450 nm.  This assay requires approximately 2.5 hrs to complete at RT.
