HP ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein haptoglobin, which is encoded by the HP gene in humans. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 406 residues, a mass of 45.2 kDa, and is a member of the Peptidase S1 protein family. It is known to be secreted and is notably expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The HP gene has been associated with the disease, Anhaptoglobinemia. Other alias names for this target include HP2ALPHA2, HPA1S, binding peptide, haptoglobin alpha(1S)-beta, haptoglobin alpha(2FS)-beta, and BP.
The detection range for different HP ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 7.81 pg/mL and as high as 1600 µg/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
