The adipophilin ELISA kits listed below are analytical tools for measuring concentrations of adipophilin in various samples. adipophilin is an alternative name for the human PLIN2 gene, which encodes the protein, perilipin 2. It has been mentioned that adipophilin plays a role in carbohydrate metabolism and homeostasis and the metabolism of lipids, among other functions. Structurally, the PLIN2 protein is described to be 437 amino acid residues in length and 48.1 kilodaltons in mass. It is localized to the membrane of the cell. This protein is known to be phosphorylated. Other names for this target antigen include ADFP, ADFP, and ADRP.
