The following Decorin ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of decorin in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the DCN gene. This protein is believed to affect the rate of fibrils formation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 359 residues, a mass of 39.7 kDa, and is a member of the Small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the extracellular matrix and is secreted. In addition, it is notably expressed in placenta. As many as 5 protein isoforms have been reported. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally glycosylated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Corneal dystrophy. This protein may also be known as DSPG2, PG40, PGII, PGS2, SLRR1B, bone proteoglycan II, dermatan sulphate proteoglycans II, and CSCD.
There are decorin ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 0.17 pg/mL and as high as 180 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.
