FGFBP3 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein fibroblast growth factor binding protein 3, which is encoded by the FGFBP3 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to be a heparin-binding protein, which binds to FGF2, prevents binding of FGF2 to heparin and probably inhibits immobilization of FGF2 on extracellular matrix glycosaminoglycans, allowing its release and subsequent activation of FGFR signaling which leads to increased vascular permeability. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 258 residues, a mass of 27.6 kDa, and is a member of the Fibroblast growth factor-binding protein family. It is known to be secreted. Other alias names for this target include FGF-binding protein 3.
The detection range for different FGFBP3 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 27.4 pg/mL and as high as 15 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
