GAL ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein galanin and GMAP prepropeptide, which is encoded by the GAL gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to be an endocrine hormone of the central and peripheral nervous systems that binds and activates the G protein-coupled receptors GALR1, GALR2, and GALR3. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 123 residues, a mass of 13.3 kDa, and is a member of the Galanin protein family. It is known to be secreted. The GAL gene has been associated with the disease, Epilepsy. Other alias names for this target include GAL-GMAP, GALN, GLNN, GMAP, galanin peptides, galanin prepropeptide, galanin-message-associated peptide, and ETL8.
Some GAL ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 4.688 pg/mL and as high as 20 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
