The following Brevican ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of brevican in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the BCAN gene. This protein is believed to play a role in the terminally differentiating and the adult nervous system during postnatal development. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 911 residues, a mass of 99.1 kDa, and is a member of the Aggrecan/versican proteoglycan protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the extracellular matrix and is secreted. In addition, it is reported to be expressed in the retina, specifically in the inner nuclear layer, inner plexiform layer and ganglion cell layer. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally O-glycosylated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, . This protein may also be known as brain-enriched hyaluronan-binding protein, chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 7, chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan BEHAB, and brevican core protein.
Some brevican ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 31.2 pg/mL and as high as 2000 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.
