COL5A2 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein collagen type V alpha 2 chain, which is encoded by the COL5A2 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in extracellular matrix organization and skeletal system development. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 1499 residues, a mass of 144.9 kDa, and is a member of the Fibrillar collagen protein family. It is known to be localized in the extracellular matrix and is secreted. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The COL5A2 gene has been associated with the disease, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Other alias names for this target include EDSCL2, collagen alpha-2(V) chain, AB collagen, collagen, fetal membrane, A polypeptide, type V preprocollagen alpha 2 chain, and EDSC.
The detection range for different COL5A2 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.31 ng/mL and as high as 5000 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
