TFR2 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein transferrin receptor 2, which is encoded by the TFR2 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to mediate cellular uptake of transferrin-bound iron in a non-iron dependent manner. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 801 residues, a mass of 88.8 kDa, and is a member of the Peptidase M28 protein family. It is known to be localized in the cell membrane and cytoplasm and is reported to be highly expressed in the liver. As many as 3 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The TFR2 gene has been associated with the disease, Hemochromatosis. Other alias names for this target include TFRC2, transferrin receptor protein 2, and HFE3.
There are TFR2 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 0.156 ng/mL and as high as 1000 µg/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
