The Quantikine Human EMMPRIN Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed to measure human EMMPRIN in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma, saliva, urine, and human milk. It contains NS0-expressed recombinant human EMMPRIN and has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural human EMMPRIN showed linear curves that were parallel to the s...tandard curves obtained using the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for naturally ocurring EMMPRIN.
Store the unopened product at 2 - 8 °C. Do not use past expiration date.

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.
