Defects in PARK2 are the cause of Parkinson disease type 2 (PARK2) also known as early-onset parkinsonism with diurnal fluctuation (EPDF), or autosomal recessive juvenile Parkinson disease (PDJ), a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by bradykinesia, rigidity, postural instability, tremor, and onset usually before age 40.  This genetic disease differs from classic Parkinson disease by early DOPA-induced dyskinesia, diurnal fluctuation of the symptoms, sleep benefit, dystonia and hyper-reflexia.  Patients with PARK2 mutations show loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, similar to that seen in classic Parkinson disease, however, Lewy bodies (intraneuronal accumulations of aggregated proteins) are absent.

Methods Overview:  Sandwich ELISA

The included ELISA 96-well micro-strip plate is provided pre-coated with an affinity purified rabbit polyclonal antibody selective to the 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 1.5 hrs to complete at 37oC.


This ELISA assay kit provides a standard peptide solution with known concentration to calibrate absorbance readings to concentration.
