FTH1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein ferritin heavy chain 1, which is encoded by the FTH1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in immune response pathways and the transport of ions. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 183 residues, a mass of 21.2 kDa, and is a member of the Ferritin protein family. It is reported to be expressed in the liver. The FTH1 gene has been associated with the disease, Hemochromatosis. Other alias names for this target include FTH, FTHL6, HFE5, PIG15, PLIF, ferritin heavy chain, apoferritin, and FHC.
The detection range for different FTH1 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 31.2 pg/mL and as high as 4000 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
