ABSTRACT:
This invention is directed to kits for the detection of human islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) comprising (a) purified preparations of antibodies which react specifically with insulin or calcitonin gene-related peptides and (b) a preselected amount of human islet amyloid polypeptide which is essentially free of islet amyloid, which polypeptide is one subunit of islet amyloid and which is prepared by depolymerizing human islet amyloid; or a preselected amount of human islet amyloid polypeptide which is essentially free of islet amyloid and has the amino acid sequence: lys-cys-Asn-Thr-Ala-Thr-Cys-Ala-Thr-Gln-Arg-Leu-Ala-Asn-Phe-Leu-Val-His-Se r-Ser-Asn-Asn-Phe-Gly-Ala-Ile-Leu-Ser-Ser-Thr-Asn-Val-Gly-Ser-Asn-Thr-Tyr.
