Background

MerTK (c-mer, Nyk, Eyk) is a tyrosine kinase that belongs to a family of transmembrane receptors (1). MerTk has been implicated in reversible cell growth arrest, survival, proliferation and cell adhesion. Growth arrest specific protein 6 (Gas6) is an activating ligand for MerTK (2-3). MerTK is required for clearance of apoptotic cells by mononuclear phagocytes in mice; with its absence resulting in progressive lupus like autoimmunity (4). Defects in MERTK are a cause of retinitis pigmentosa (RP) (5).

Limitations

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. ELISA Kits are guaranteed for 6 months from date of receipt.

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.
