TAS2R13 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein taste 2 receptor member 13, which is encoded by the TAS2R13 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is a known receptor that may play a role in the perception of bitterness and is gustducin-linked. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 303 residues, a mass of 35.1 kDa, and is a member of the G-protein coupled receptor T2R protein family. It is known to be localized in the membrane and is reported to be expressed in subsets of taste receptor cells of the tongue and palate epithelium and exclusively in gustducin-positive cells. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. Other alias names for this target include TRB3, taste receptor type 2 member 13, taste receptor, family B, member 3, taste receptor, type 2, member 13, and T2R13.
The detection range for different TAS2R13 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.156 ng/mL and as high as 10 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
