PLIN5 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein perilipin 5, which is encoded by the PLIN5 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in the metabolism of lipids. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 463 residues, a mass of 50.8 kDa, and is a member of the Perilipin protein family. It is known to be localized in the mitochondria and cytoplasm and is reported to be expressed in skeletal muscle, liver, heart and kidney. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally phosphorylated. Other alias names for this target include lipid storage droplet protein 5.
The detection range for different PLIN5 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 20 ng/L and as high as 10 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
