Description
Product Characteristics: The kit is a sandwich enzyme immunoassay for in vitro quantitative measurement of HVCN1 in human tissue homogenates.
Target Information: This gene encodes a voltage-gated protein channel protein expressed more highly in certain cells of the immune system. Phagocytic cells produce superoxide anions which require this channel protein, and in B cells this same process facilitates antibody production. This same channel protein, however, can also regulate functions in other cells including spermatozoa. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
