The Glutamate Receptor, Ionotropic, Kainate 2 ELISA kits listed below utilize specific antibodies for the plate-based assay of Glutamate Receptor, Ionotropic, Kainate 2 in various samples. Glutamate Receptor, Ionotropic, Kainate 2 is another term for the GRIK2 gene, which encodes the protein, glutamate ionotropic receptor kainate type subunit 2 in humans. It has been reported that Glutamate Receptor, Ionotropic, Kainate 2 plays a role in chemical synaptic transmission and the regulation of intracellular calcium, among other functions. Structurally, the GRIK2 protein is 908 amino acid residues in length and 102.6 kilodaltons in mass. However, as many as 7 protein isoforms have been identified. It is localized to the cell membrane of the cell. This protein is known to be glycosylated, ubiquitinated, sumoylated and phosphorylated. Other names for this target antigen include EAA4, GLR6, and GLUK6. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
