THBS2 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein thrombospondin 2, which is encoded by the THBS2 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to be an adhesive glycoprotein that mediates cell-to-cell and cell-to-matrix interactions. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 1172 residues, a mass of 130 kDa, and is a member of the Thrombospondin protein family. It is reported be highly expressed in invertebral disk tissue. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The THBS2 gene has been associated with the disease, Intervertebral disc disease. Other alias names for this target include TSP2.
The detection range for different THBS2 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.094 pg/mL and as high as 500 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
