  Protocol

Methods Overview:

The included ELISA micro-strip plate is provided pre-coated with an a monoclonal capture antibody selective to the antigen.  Samples are pre-mixed with a biotin-linked detection antibody and streptavidin-HRP, which are then added to the plate.  A 60 minute incubation period at 37oC is used, and then the plate is subsequently washed.  Color reagents are added, resulting in a reaction with HRP that yields a blue colored solution.  A stop solution is applied to terminate the reaction, and the now yellow solution is measured at 450nm.

ELISA Assay Steps
  1. Mix sample, provided biotinylated-detection antibody and provided streptavidin-HRP.
  2. Apply sample and antibody-HRP complex to ELISA plate for 60min at 37oC.  Wash 5 times.
  3. Apply chromogens, incubate, then stop reaction.



Introduction to Kallikrein-6:   
Kallikrein-6 is a protein with serine protease activity that is detected with grey matter neurons and colocalizes with pathological inclusions. Kallikreins have many known functions; they are associated with carcinogenisis and are thought to be disease biomarkers.  Kallikrein-6 has been found to cleave amyloid precursor protein as well as myelin basic protein, gelatin, casein, and many extracellular matrix proteins.  Kallikrein-6 also cleaves alpha-synuclein, preventing polymerization.
