The SLUG ELISA kits listed below utilize specific antibodies for the plate-based assay of SLUG in various samples. SLUG is another term for the SNAI2 gene, which encodes the protein, snail family transcriptional repressor 2 in humans. It has been reported that SLUG plays a role in the regulation of Wnt signaling pathways, among other functions. Structurally, the SNAI2 protein is described to be 268 amino acid residues in length and 30 kilodaltons in mass. It is localized to the nucleus and cytoplasm of the cell. This protein is known to be phosphorylated. Other names for this target antigen include SLUGH and SLUGH1.
The detection range for different SLUG ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.156 ng/mL and as high as 10 ng/mL. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
