Description
Product Characteristics: The kit is a sandwich enzyme immunoassay for in vitro quantitative measurement of trichohyalin in human tissue homogenates, cell lysates.
Target Information: Trichohyalin confers mechanical strength to the hair follicle inner root sheath and to other toughened epithelial tissues, such as the hard palate and filiform ridges of the tongue, by forming multiple complex crosslinks with itself and with other structural proteins (Steinert et al., 2003 [PubMed 12853460]).[supplied by OMIM, Dec 2009]
