The deoxyribonuclease II alpha ELISA kits listed below utilize specific antibodies for the plate-based assay of deoxyribonuclease II alpha in various samples. deoxyribonuclease II alpha is another term for the DNASE2 gene, which encodes the protein, deoxyribonuclease 2, lysosomal in humans. It has been reported that deoxyribonuclease II alpha plays a role in the apoptotic pathway and enucleate erythrocyte differentiation, among other functions. Structurally, the DNASE2 protein is 360 amino acid residues in length and 39.6 kilodaltons in mass. However, as many as 2 protein isoforms have been identified. It is localized to the lysosomes of the cell. In terms of tissue specificity, it is reported to be expressed in monocytes/macrophages. This protein is known to be N-glycosylated. Other names for this target antigen include AIPCS, DNASE2A, and DNL. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
