Description
Product Characteristics: The kit is a sandwich enzyme immunoassay for in vitro quantitative measurement of PLA2R1 in human serum, plasma, tissue homogenates.
Target Information: This gene represents a phospholipase A2 receptor. The encoded protein likely exists as both a transmembrane form and a soluble form. The transmembrane receptor may play a role in clearance of phospholipase A2, thereby inhibiting its action. Polymorphisms at this locus have been associated with susceptibility to idiopathic membranous nephropathy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]
