The GHAP ELISA kits listed below are analytical tools for measuring concentrations of GHAP in various samples. GHAP is an alternative name for the human VCAN gene, which encodes the protein, versican. It has been mentioned that GHAP plays a role in cell adhesion and glial cell differentiation, among other functions. Structurally, the VCAN protein is 3396 amino acid residues in length and 372.8 kilodaltons in mass. However, as many as 5 protein isoforms have been identified. Its subcellular localization is in the extracellular matrix and is secreted. In terms of tissue specificity, it is notably expressed in placenta. This protein is known to be glycosylated, cleaved and phosphorylated. Other names for this target antigen include CSPG2, CSPG2, and ERVR.
