Motilin is a 22-amino acid polypeptide hormone in the motilin family that, in humans, is encoded by the MLN gene. Motilin is secreted by endocrine M cells (these are not the same as the microfold cells (M cells) that are in Peyer's patches) that are numerous in crypts of the small intestine, especially in the duodenum and jejunum. It is released into the general circulation in humans at about 100-min intervals during the inter-digestive state and is the most important factor in controlling the inter-digestive migrating contractions; and it also stimulates endogenous release of the endocrine pancreas. Based on amino acid sequence, motilin is unrelated to other hormones. Because of its ability to stimulate gastric activity, it was named "motilin". Apart from in humans, the motilin receptor has been identified in the gastrointestinal tracts of pigs, rats, cows, and cats, and in the central nervous system of rabbits.

Mouse Motilin (MTL) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate MTL in samples. An antibody specific for MTL has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyMTL present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for MTL 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 MTL bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
