| QSOX1

Quiescin sulfhydryl oxidase 1 is an enzyme that is encoded by the QSOX1 gene.This gene encodes an enzyme that is localized primarily to the Golgi apparatus and secreted fluids. QSOX1 is a multi-domain disulfide catalyst. Unlike other disulfide catalysts, QSOX1 can both generate disulfides de novo and catalyze dithiol/disulfide exchange. The de novo disulfide bond formation is catalyzed by the ERV1 domain that contains a FAD co-factor that allows depositions of electrons onto the terminal electron acceptor, typically molecular oxygen. The dithiol/disulfide exchange is catalyzed by the thioredoxin domain.
 

| Typical data

As the OD values of the standard curve may vary according to the conditions of the actual assay performance (e.g. operator, pipetting technique, wash technique or temperature effects), the operator should establish a standard curve for each test. Typical standard curve and data are provided below for reference only.

 

Concentration (pg/mL)	5000	2500	1250	625	312	156	78	0
OD	2.2	1.65	1.16	0.8	0.54	0.37	0.28	0.09
Corrected OD	2.11	1.56	1.07	0.71	0.45	0.28	0.19	-

 

| Repeatability

Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay)：CV% < 10%; Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays)：CV% < 10%
 

| Recovery

The recovery of Mouse QSOX1 spiked at three different levels in samples throughout the range of the assay was evaluated in various matrices.

 

Sample Type	Range(%)	Average Recovery(%)
Serum(n=8)	84-101	96
Plasma(n=8)	90-105	102
Tissue Homogenates(n=8)	96-108	103

 

| Linearity

Samples were spiked with high concentrations of Mouse QSOX1 and diluted with Universal Diluent to produce samples with values within the range of the assay.

 

		Serum(n=4)	Plasma(n=4)	Tissue Homogenates(n=4)
1 : 2	Range (%)	85-95	87-96	90-110
	Average (%)	91	93	96
1 : 4	Range (%)	89-103	87-108	105-115
	Average (%)	94	98	110
