GHRL ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein ghrelin and obestatin prepropeptide, which is encoded by the GHRL gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in cartilage development and dendrite development. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 117 residues, a mass of 12.9 kDa, and is a member of the Motilin protein family. It is known to be secreted and is reported be highly expressed in stomach. As many as 6 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally acetylated. Other alias names for this target include appetite-regulating hormone, In2c-preproghrelin, ghrelin, growth hormone secretagogue receptor ligand, ghrelin/obestatin preprohormone, and MTLRP.
There are GHRL ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 0.1 pg/mL and as high as 1500 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
