Background
The name EMMPRIN reflects this proteins extracellular metalloproteinase inducer activity. It is a cell surface protein with two extracellular Ig domains, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic domain. Its expression is often elevated in human tumor cells, which in turn promotes MMP-1, MMP-2 and MMP-3 production in melanoma cells and MMP-2 and MMP-9 production in breast cancer cells. It interacts with several types of molecules such as integrins, caveolin-1 and MCT1. TRA-1-85 is an epitope within EMMPRIN.

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.
