HSP60 (human), ELISA kit

• Sensitive – use less precious sample per test compared to Western blot
• Higher throughput – test up to 40 samples in duplicate in just less than 3 hours
• Quantitative – obtain statistically signficant results and compare data between multiple experiments

The HSP60 (human), EIA kit is a colorimetric immunometric enzyme immunoassay kit with results in < 3 hours. Absorbance is read at 450 nm. Save time, money, and precious sample with fully quantitative results and increased sensitivity compared to Western blot analysis.

Hsp60 is a member of the chaperonin family of heat shock proteins, with homologs functioning in the cytosol and mitochondria to fold nascent and aggregated proteins. Hsp60 is the eukaryotic homolog of the E. coli GroEL protein, and forms a multimeric complex in the mitochondria with Hsp10 (Cpn10) to form a large central cavity in which ATP-dependent protein folding takes place. TRiC/CCT, a eukaryotic relative of Hsp60, is expressed in the cytosol and participates in the folding of actin and tubulin substrates, but lacks any association with an Hsp10-like co-factor.
