Interpolated concentrations of native Myosin Light Chain 3 in human heart and skeletal muscle extract samples based on a 72 μg/mL and 20 µg/mL extract load respectively.

The concentrations of Myosin Light Chain 3 were measured in duplicate and interpolated from the Myosin Light Chain 3 standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean Myosin Light Chain 3 concentration was determined to be 1538 pg/mL in heart extract and 2893 pg/mL in skeletal muscle extract.

Product details

Human Myosin light chain 3 ELISA Kit (ab246538) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Myosin light chain 3 protein in tissue extracts and cell culture extracts. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Human Myosin light chain 3 with 89 pg/ml sensitivity.

SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:

- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
- Fully validated in biological samples
- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips

A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Myosin light chain 3 (MLC3) also known as myosin regulatory light chain 3 is a part of the myosin protein complex. It plays a major role in muscle contraction by regulating the ATPase activity of myosin heads. MLC3 is encoded by the MYL3 gene and has a molecular mass of approximately 18kDa. It is expressed mainly in cardiac and skeletal muscle tissues. By interacting with myosin heavy chains MLC3 contributes to the force-generating capacity of muscles.
Biological function summary

MLC3 functions as an essential component of the myosin light chain complex. This complex regulates contractile activity in muscle cells by modulating the interaction between actin and myosin chains. MLC3 activates the mechanical movement of myosin chains impacting cardiac and skeletal muscle contraction. When activated it affects the speed and strength of muscle contraction and it also has a role in muscle differentiation and development.

Pathways

MLC3 is an integral part of the muscle contraction pathway. It interacts with proteins such as tropomyosin and troponin which are important for the regulation of muscle contraction. Additionally MLC3 participates in the calcium signaling pathway which is pivotal for contraction processes in muscles. This interaction helps to control the cytosolic calcium concentration a critical factor in muscle contraction dynamics.

MLC3 has connections to cardiomyopathy and hypertrophic conditions. Mutations or dysregulation of MYL3 can lead to cardiac hypertrophy a disease where the heart muscle thickens abnormally. MLC3's interaction with troponin and other myosin chains can exacerbate cardiac conditions when these pathways are disrupted. Studies have linked deficiencies in MLC3 to improper muscle development which may underline some muscle myopathies.
