Human Pappalysin-1/PAPP-A Magnetic Luminex Performance Assay
Human Pappalysin-1/PAPP-A Magnetic Luminex Performance Assay Summary
| Assay Type | bead-based multiplex assay for the Luminex® platform |
| Format | 1 x 96-well microplate and antibody-coated beads |
| Analytes Detected | Please see analyte list in assay customization tool below. |
| Performance Validation | Luminex Assays are validated for use with cell culture supernatants, plasma and serum. All Luminex assays are tested for sensitivity, intra-assay precision, inter-assay precision and to ensure assay linearity for validated sample types. Antibody pairs are selected and tested to confirm the parallel detection of natural and recombinant standard protein and to ensure the accurate determination of target analytes within biological samples. Assays for each target analyte are screened against all target analytes to confirm low antibody cross-reactivity. For standard curves, intra-assay and inter-assay precision, recovery, and linearity data for the different analyte-specific beads, please see product datasheets for corresponding individual Bead Sets (below). |

Background: Pappalysin-1/PAPP-A
Pappalysins comprise one of the five families of Metzincins (other families include ADAMs/ADAMTSs, MMPs, Astacins, and Serralysins). Pappalysin-1 (PAPP-A) is an important pregnancy protein and increases in plasma by a factor of about 150 during pregnancy. Reduced maternal serum PAPP-A is a major marker of Down syndrome in the first trimester of pregnancy. PAPP-A cleaves IGFBP-4 and -5 (insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-4 and 5) at a single site, resulting in the release of bioactive IGF. Pappalysin-2 (PAPP-A2; also called PAPP-E) shares 45% amino acid identity with PAPP-A and cleaves IGFBP-2.
