Background

Insulin receptor substrates (IRS), the major intracellular substrates of the insulin receptor (IR), are adaptor proteins that transduce signals from the IR to downstream effectors that are important for the biological effect of insulin (1-2). After insulin stimulation, IRS proteins are rapidly phosphorylated on multiple tyrosine residues. Once phosphorylated, IRS proteins bind and activate Grb-2, SHP2 and the PI3-K p85 subunit (2-3). IRS-1 functions as one of the key regulators of IR and the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor. Disruption of IRS-1 causes growth retardation and insulin resistance associated with hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, and impaired endothelium-dependent vascular relaxation (4-5)

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.
