Background

GM2A, also known as Ganglioside GM2 activator, is a 193 amino acid that is 21 kDa, with lysosome subcellular location, acts as s a lipid transfer protein that stimulates the enzymatic processing of gangliosides and T-cell activation; acts as a substrate specific co-factor for the lysosomal enzyme beta-hexosaminidase A which, together with this activator, catalyzes the degradation of the ganglioside GM2; also displays some calcium-independent phospholipase activity. Disease research on this protein has shown a relationship with tay-sachs disease, gangliosidosis, gangliosidosis gm2, sandhoff disease, neurological disorder, candidiasis, protein s deficiency, neurodegenerative disease, tay-sachs disease ab variant, spinal muscular atrophy, lysosomal storage disease, muscular atrophy, sinusitis, gastric cancer, cholesterol, and neuronitis. The GM2A protein has also shown an interaction with PLD2, GPLD1 and HEXA in the Sphingolipid metabolism, glycosphingolipid metabolism, lysosome, and phospholipid metabolism pathways.

1. What is the difference between the Quantikine and Duoset ELISA kits?
   • Our Quantikine kits are fully optimized and validated for the sample types listed on the product specific webpage and datasheet, as this can vary between kits. Each kit is supplied ready to use with one pre-coated 96-well plate, a detection antibody directly conjugated to HRP, and all other necessary reagents. These kits are ideal for researchers who want the convenience of a ready to use and optimized ELISA product. Some of these kits are also available prepackaged in larger 6 and 50 plate sizes.Our DuoSet Kits, in contrast, are ELISA development kits containing the capture and detection antibody, the mass-value calibrated standard, and streptavidin-HRP to prepare approximately 5 or 15 plates. Ancillary reagents will need to be used/purchased, and for most kits, we will recommend one of our Ancillary Reagent Kits, which contain the reagents we use ourselves in-house. DuoSet kits are validated only for cell culture supernatant samples and therefore require further development and validation for accurate measurement in more complex samples such as serum and plasma. Our DuoSet Kits offer an economical, flexible alternative for the experienced ELISA user.
