LIPN ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein lipase family member N, which is encoded by the LIPN gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to play a highly specific role in the last step of keratinocyte differentiation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 398 residues, a mass of 45.5 kDa, and is a member of the Lipase protein family. It is known to be secreted and is reported to be highly expressed in the epidermis in the granular keratinocytes. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The LIPN gene has been associated with the disease, Ichthyosis. Other alias names for this target include lipase member N and lipase-like abhydrolase domain-containing protein 4.
The detection range for different LIPN 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.
