Background of ADAM12

ADAM12 (Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 12), also known as MLTN, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ADAM12 gene. This gene encodes a member of the ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloprotease) protein family. Members of this family are membrane-anchored proteins structurally related to snake venom disintegrins, and have been implicated in a variety of biological processes involving cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, including fertilization, muscle development, and neurogenesis. This gene has two alternatively spliced transcripts: a shorter secreted form and a longer membrane-bound form. The shorter form is found to stimulate myogenesis. By RT-PCR and immunoblot analyses that expression of mouse Adam12 increases during muscle regeneration, while the levels of other ADAMs remain constant. Immunofluorescence analysis revealed staining of small, newly formed muscle fibers in regenerating but not normal adult muscle cells. By using of fluorescence in situ hybridization, the ADAM12 gene is mapped to human chromosome 10q26.3.

Question

Q: can I use citrate plasma as samples in Human ADAM12 Picokine® ELISA Kit (Catalog # EK0934)?

W. Garcia

Verified customer

Asked: 2020-01-18

Answer

A: Chelating agents such as EDTA, Heparin and Citrate can sequester metal ions from the functional domain of ADAM12 causing degradation of its protein structure. ADAM12 may be denatured as a result and may compromise the assay's measurements. The chilating sites could also be too close to the epitopes needed for detection and block the antigen antibody reaction. We have tested the ADAM12 ELISA, treating samples with a number of anticoagulants and decided that heparin can be used for treatment of blood/plasma samples. Do not use other anticoagulents when collecting samples.

Question

Q: What is the optimal O.D. value for ADAM12 ELISA kit? I performed your ADAM12 ELISA on serum samples. For my positive control, I received an O.D. value of 0.826, while my negative control received a value of 0.136. I obtained both of these controls from the ELISA kit, where your kit's typical data shows O.D. values much higher than my positive control and your background is lower. My samples O.D. values are around 0.225 and the highest is only 0.357. is it safe to say these samples contain ADAM12 even though the O.D. values are not very high?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2019-11-15

Answer

A: The absolute O.D. values may change according to incubation time. The more you incubate the higher the O.D. values are going to be. a point of focus should be is whether your sample O.D. values are statistically significantly higher than your blank values. regarding your assay, you could extend your development time in the substrate incubation step to obtain higher O.D. values, as long as your negative controls' O.D. values are not increasing faster in proportion to your positive controls. normally, a sample with O.D. value 2 standard deviations higher than your negative controls can be considered positive. We calculate the sensitivity of this ELISA kit by converting cutoff O.D. value, calculated as the average of 20 negative controls plus 2 standard deviations of the 20 negative controls, into a concentration. in other words, when we claim this ADAM12 ELISA kit to have sensitivity of 10pg/ml, that means the minimum amount of ADAM12 that can be declared/interpreted as positive by the above standard is 10pg/ml.

Question

Q: we need your recommendation regarding the dilution ratio of serum samples for detection of ADAM12 in Human serum? I am trying to measure a few analytes and it requires 100ul of diluted samples for each well. We have limited sample quantitys so we like to dilute as much as possible.

S. Li

Verified customer

Asked: 2019-06-08

Answer

A: unable to know the physiological or pathological context of your samples we cannot recommend a dilution ratio without performing a pilot test with your samples. Here is how you can perform a pilot study on your own: perform a serial dilution of your samples on the ADAM12 ELISA kit to make sure you have a linear ascending curve followed by a plateau, which signifies the samples saturating the detection limit of the kit. Then you can pick the dilution ratios from samples in the linear part of the curve as your experimental dilution ratio.
If you are interested in using our ELISA service, you can also send us your sample and we will take care of everything for you. You can check our service details here: bosterbio.com/services/assay-services/ELISA-testing-service
Since you mentioned you have limited samples, our cost effective multiplex ELISA service would fit perfectly for your needs, where we can generate dozens of data points using as little as 25ul sample volume. Information on this service is also in the above link.

Question

Q: what is the protocol regarding preparation of cell lysates prepared for use in Picokine® ELISA kits?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2018-09-29

Answer

A: for those Picokine® ELISAs where cell or tissue lysate is a validated sample type, sample preparation instructions for lysate are present in the product insert. Components in lysate and lysis buffer can change immunoreactivity, so if lysate is not a validated sample type, care must be taken in sample preparation and validation.

Question

Q: for how much duration can samples (cell cultures, serum, and plasma) be stored and still be stable for measurement ADAM12 using the EK0934 Human ADAM12 Picokine® ELISA Kit?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2015-11-18

Answer

A: Boster Bio does not assess sample stability. Variations in sample collection, processing, and storage may affect the stabilityof samples. It is recommend to assay sample on priority basis collection when possible, or aliquot into single use volumes and store samples frozen. avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles with the stored samples to limit protein degradation.

Question

Q: if the enzyme conjugated ADAM12 antibodies are mixed with the substrate, will that change the substrate into the enzymatic reaction product? Or the enzyme function is only activated when the antibody is attached with the ADAM12 antigen?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2015-09-16

Answer

A: The enzyme is always active. Avoid contaminating the substrate with enzyme prior to the incubation otherwise it compromises the assay with false positive signal.
