Urocortin-2 is a member of the sauvagine/corticotropin-releasing factor/urotensin I family. It is structurally related to the corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) gene and the encoded product is an endogenous ligand for CRF type 2 receptors. In the brain it may be responsible for the effects of stress on appetite. In spite of the gene family name similarity, the product of this gene has no sequence similarity to urotensin II.Urocortin (UCN) II is a 38 amino acid member of the mammalian corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) peptide family, which also includes CRH, UCN I, and UCN III . CRH mainly binds to type 1 CRH receptors (CRH1), while UCN II and III bind primarily to type 2 CRH receptors, and UCN I binds to both (CRH2) .
Mouse Urocortin-2 (UCN2) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate UCN2 in samples. An antibody specific for UCN2 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyUCN2 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for UCN2 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of UCN2 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
