Product details

Human PLTP is a matched pair of unconjugated recombinant rabbit monoclonal capture and detection antibodies used to quantify Human PLTP in sandwich ELISAs and many other pair-based applications.

Patented technology
Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with <1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

The pair can be used in variety of assays and platforms including but not limited to:

  • Sandwich ELISA
  • FRET/TR-FRET/HTRF
  • Meso Scale Discovery® (MSD®)
  • Bead-based assays
  • AlphaLISA®/AlphaScreen®
  • DELFIA® immunoassays
  • Simoa® and Single Molecule Counting (SMC™) immunoassays
  • Multiplex

Our antibody pairs are supplied in a carrier-free format that is conjugation-ready:

  • Buffer free of BSA, sodium azide, and glycerol for higher conjugation efficiency.
  • Concentration of ~1 mg/ml as measured by the protein A280 method.

We can label antibodies for you: get in touch today to discuss how we can help accelerate your assay development with custom conjugation services.

Pairs are screened in biological samples, including plasma and serum, to ensure specificity in complex samples.

Please note:

The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization in sandwich ELISA. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type.

The range provided for this antibody pair is based on initial sandwich ELISA validation data using recombinant protein. Performance and range of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay, including standard protein selection.

We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibodies in other assays.

PLTP also known as Phospholipid Transfer Protein is an important component in human lipid metabolism. This protein functions by transferring phospholipids between different types of lipoproteins in plasma. PLTP possesses a molecular mass of about 56 kDa. Its expression occurs mainly in the liver and adipose tissue with additional presence in the brain and lungs. These locales of expression facilitate its key roles in lipid processing and lipoprotein metabolism.
Biological function summary

PLTP plays a significant role in remodeling high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and regulating lipoprotein particles. PLTP exists as a part of a larger complex involved in these processes interacting closely with other proteins in the lipoprotein maturation and transformation. This activity of PLTP significantly affects the levels and sizes of HDL particles in circulation thereby influencing cholesterol homeostasis within the body.

Pathways

PLTP acts within the reverse cholesterol transport pathway important for the removal of excess cholesterol from peripheral tissues. The protein works alongside Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) and Lecithin-Cholesterol Acyltransferase (LCAT) to promote cholesterol efflux and HDL maturation. Another key pathway involving PLTP is the lipid metabolism pathway where it influences lipid levels and impacts the function of other proteins such as Apolipoprotein E (ApoE).

PLTP has associations with atherosclerosis and metabolic syndrome. Variations in PLTP activity or expression can lead to altered HDL levels increasing the risk for heart disease and related cardiovascular conditions. In atherosclerosis PLTP's relationship with ApoA-I becomes especially relevant as this interaction influences lipid transport dynamics and plaque formation. Additionally in metabolic syndrome abnormal PLTP function may contribute to dyslipidemia a common factor in metabolic disorders.

Product protocols

Target data

Mediates the transfer of phospholipids and free cholesterol from triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (low density lipoproteins or LDL and very low density lipoproteins or VLDL) into high-density lipoproteins (HDL) as well as the exchange of phospholipids between triglyceride-rich lipoproteins themselves (PubMed : 11013307, PubMed : 19321130, PubMed : 21515415, PubMed : 29883800, PubMed : 7654777, PubMed : 9132017). Facilitates the transfer of a spectrum of different lipid molecules, including diacylglycerol, phosphatidic acid, sphingomyelin, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol, cerebroside and phosphatidyl ethanolamine (PubMed : 9132017). Plays an important role in HDL remodeling which involves modulating the size and composition of HDL (PubMed : 29883800). Also plays a key role in the uptake of cholesterol from peripheral cells and tissues that is subsequently transported to the liver for degradation and excretion (PubMed : 21736953). Two distinct forms of PLTP exist in plasma : an active form that can transfer phosphatidylcholine from phospholipid vesicles to HDL, and an inactive form that lacks this capability (PubMed : 11013307).
