HPX ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein hemopexin, which is encoded by the HPX gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to bind heme and transports it to the liver for breakdown and iron recovery, after which the free hemopexin returns to the circulation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 462 residues, a mass of 51.7 kDa, and is a member of the Hemopexin protein family. It is known to be secreted and is notably expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally O-glycosylated. Other alias names for this target include beta-1B-glycoprotein, epididymis secretory sperm binding protein, and HX.
There are HPX ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 13.7 pg/mL and as high as 20 µg/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
