Troponin is a central regulatory protein of striated muscle contraction, and together with tropomyosin, is located on the actin filament. Troponin consists of 3 subunits: TnI, which is the inhibitor of actomyosin ATPase; TnT, which contains the binding site for tropomyosin; and TnC, the protein encoded by this gene. The binding of calcium to TnC abolishes the inhibitory action of TnI, thus allowing the interaction of actin with myosin, the hydrolysis of ATP, and the generation of tension. Mutations in this gene are associated with cardiomyopathy dilated type 1Z. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

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