DEFB123 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein defensin beta 123, which is encoded by the DEFB123 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to exhibit antibacterial activity. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 67 residues, a mass of 8.1 kDa, and is a member of the Beta-defensin protein family. It is known to be secreted and is reported be highly expressed in the male reproductive tract only. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. Other alias names for this target include beta defensin 23, specific to testis and epididymis, and beta-defensin 123.
The detection range for different DEFB123 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.05 ng/mL and as high as 20 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
