Description
Product Characteristics: The kit is a sandwich enzyme immunoassay for in vitro quantitative measurement of MFAP4 in rat serum, plasma, tissue homogenates.
Target Information: This gene encodes a protein with similarity to a bovine microfibril-associated protein. The protein has binding specificities for both collagen and carbohydrate. It is thought to be an extracellular matrix protein which is involved in cell adhesion or intercellular interactions. The gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]
