Enolase 2 (2-phospho-D-glycerate hydrolyase; also Neuron-specific Enolase, NSE, neural enolase and gamma-enolase) is a 46 kDa member of the Enolase family of enzymes. It is expressed in developing neurons and glia, is known to catalyze the generation of phosphoenolpyruvate, and is suggested to possess neurotrophic activity for neurons, likely through an extracellular mechanism. Human Enolase 2 is 434 amino acids (aa) in length. The enzymatic site spans most of the length of the molecule. Enolase 2 exists as both a noncovalently-linked homodimer, or heterodimer with alpha-enolase. Full-length human Enolase 2 shares 99% aa identity with both mouse and canine Enolase 2. It shares 83% aa identity with human enolases 1 and 3.

Protocols
View specific protocols for Human Enolase 2/Neuron-specific Enolase Quantikine ELISA Kit (DENL20):
- Prepare all reagents, standard dilutions, and samples as directed in the product insert.
- Remove excess microplate strips from the plate frame, return them to the foil pouch containing the desiccant pack, and reseal.
- Add 100 µL of Assay Diluent to each well.
- Add 50 µL of Standard, control, or sample to each well. Cover with a plate sealer, and incubate at room temperature for 2 hours on a horizontal orbital microplate shaker.
- Aspirate each well and wash, repeating the process 3 times for a total of 4 washes.
- Add 200 µL of Conjugate to each well. Cover with a new plate sealer, and incubate at room temperature for 2 hours on the shaker.
- Aspirate and wash 4 times.
- Add 200 µL Substrate Solution to each well. Incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes on the benchtop. PROTECT FROM LIGHT.
- Add 50 µL of Stop Solution to each well. Read at 450 nm within 30 minutes. Set wavelength correction to 540 nm or 570 nm.
