TM2D1 is a beta-amyloid peptide-binding protein. It contains a structural module related to that of the seven transmembrane domain G protein-coupled receptor superfamily and known to be important in heterotrimeric G protein activation. Beta-amyloid peptide has been established to be a causative factor in neuron death and the consequent diminution of cognitive abilities observed in Alzheimer's disease. This protein may be a target of neurotoxic beta-amyloid peptide, and may mediate cellular vulnerability to beta-amyloid peptide toxicity through a G protein-regulated program of cell death.BBP bound the 42-amino acid form of human beta-amyloid peptide in vitro with high affinity and specificity. Expression of a signaling-deficient dominant-negative BBP mutant suppressed sensitivity of human Ntera-2 neurons to beta-amyloid-mediated toxicity.

Human TM2 domain-containing protein 1 (TM2D1) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate TM2D1 in samples. An antibody specific for TM2D1 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyTM2D1 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for TM2D1 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 TM2D1 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
