The following fibroblast activation protein alpha ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of fibroblast activation protein alpha in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the FAP gene. This protein has been described to function in angiogenesis and cell adhesion. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 760 residues, a mass of 87.7 kDa, and is a member of the Peptidase S9B protein family. It is reported to be expressed in adipose tissue. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally N-glycosylated. This protein may also be known as FAPA, FAPalpha, SIMP, prolyl endopeptidase FAP, 170 kDa melanoma membrane-bound gelatinase, and DPPIV.
There are fibroblast activation protein alpha ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 12 pg/mL and as high as 50 ng/mL. Use the search filters to narrow your search and click on the ELISA kits below for more detailed information, such as reactivity and assay sensitivity.
