The following thrombopoietin ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of thrombopoietin in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the THPO gene. This protein has been described to function in cell proliferation and the cellular response to lipopolysaccharides. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 353 residues, a mass of 37.8 kDa, and is a member of the EPO/TPO protein family. It has been described to be a secreted protein. As many as 3 protein isoforms have been reported. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally glycosylated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Thrombocythemia. This protein may also be known as MKCSF, ML, MPLLG, THCYT1, TPO, MPL ligand, c-mpl ligand, and MGDF.
The detection range for different thrombopoietin ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 2.74 pg/mL and as high as 40 ng/mL.
