MBS9373849 is a ready-to-use microwell, strip-or-full plate ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) Kit for analyzing the presence of the Retinoschisin (RS) ELISA Kit target analytes in
biological samples. The concentration gradients of the kit standards or positive controls render a theoretical kit detection range in biological research samples containing RS. The ELISA analytical biochemical technique of the MBS9373849 kit is based on RS antibody-RS antigen interactions (immunosorbency) and an HRP colorimetric detection system to detect RS antigen targets in samples. The ELISA Kit is designed to detect native, not recombinant, RS. Appropriate sample types may include undiluted body fluids and/or tissue homogenates, secretions. Quality control assays assessing reproducibility identified the intra-assay CV (%) and inter-assay CV(%).

NCBI Summary for RS
This gene encodes an extracellular protein that plays a crucial role in the cellular organization of the retina. The encoded protein is assembled and secreted from photoreceptors and bipolar cells as a homo-oligomeric protein complex. Mutations in this gene are responsible for X-linked retinoschisis, a common, early-onset macular degeneration in males that results in a splitting of the inner layers of the retina and severe loss in vision.

UniProt Comments for RS
RS1: a highly conserved extracellular protein essential for proper retinal structure. Must interact with L-type voltage-gated calcium channels (L-VGCCs) correctly so that the photoreceptor cells in the eye can function properly. Genetic mutations in RS1 cause X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) and early onset of macular degeneration. Interacts with the L-VGCCa1D subunit, regulating its activity. The expression and secretion of retinoschisin are modulated by circadian rhythms, peaking at night and diminishing during the day.
