  • Product overview

    ab119564 VAP-1 Human ELISA Kit (with color giving dyes) is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative detection of Human sVAP-1. ab119564 is for research use only. Not for diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.

    Lymphocyte binding to vascular endothelium is a prerequisite for the move- ment of immune cells from the blood into lymphoid tissues and into sites of inflammation. Under inflammatory conditions, cell surface expression of VAP-1 (vascular adhesion protein-1) which is an endothelial sialoglycoprotein, is induced. VAP-1 is a type II transmembrane protein of 84.6 kDa with a single transmembrane domain and N and O-glycosylation sites in the extracellular domain. In vivo, VAP-1 exists predominantly as a 180 kDa homodimer and functions both as an enzyme (monoamine oxidase) and an adhesion molecule for lymphocytes.

    A circulating form of human Vascular Adhesion Protein-1 (sVAP-1) has been characterized. This sVAP-1 has been shown to be elevated in sera of patients with certain liver diseases and a correlation with the diagnosis of the patients was demonstrated.

    In order to help avoid any mistakes in pipetting, our kit provides color giving dyes that help monitor the addition of a solution to the reaction. Each dye gives a distinctive color for each step of the ELISA procedure.

Properties

  • FunctionCell adhesion protein that participates in lymphocyte recirculation by mediating the binding of lymphocytes to peripheral lymph node vascular endothelial cells in an L-selectin-independent fashion. Has a monoamine oxidase activity. May play a role in adipogenesis.
  • Tissue specificityStrongly expressed on the high endothelial venules of peripheral lymph nodes and on hepatic endothelia. Also highly expressed in appendix, lung and small intestine. Expressed also in adipose tissue, in bone marrow, colon, heart, kidney, ovary, pancreas, placenta, prostate, skeletal muscle, spleen and testis.
  • Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the copper/topaquinone oxidase family.
  • Post-translational
    modifications
    Topaquinone (TPQ) is generated by copper-dependent autoxidation of a specific tyrosyl residue.
    N- and O-glycosylated.
  • Cellular localizationMembrane.
