Product overview
Abcam’s Hemopexin (HPX) Human in vitro competitive ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is designed for the quantitive measurement of hemopexin levels in plasma and serum.
A Hemopexin specific antibody has been precoated onto 96-well plates and blocked. Standards or test samples are added to the wells and subsequently biotinylated Hemopexin is added and then followed by washing with wash buffer. Streptavidin-Peroxidase Complex is added and unbound conjugates are washed away with wash buffer. TMB is then used to visualize Streptavidin-Peroxidase enzymatic reaction. TMB is catalyzed by Streptavidin-Peroxidase to produce a blue color product that changes into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow coloration is inversely proportional to the amount of Hemopexin captured in plate.

Research areas
-
Function
Binds heme and transports it to the liver for breakdown and iron recovery, after which the free hemopexin returns to the circulation. -
Tissue specificity
Expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the hemopexin family.
Contains 5 hemopexin-like domains. -
Post-translational
modificationsN- and O-glycosylated. O-glycosylated with core 1 or possibly core 8 glycans. -
