AQP5 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein aquaporin 5, which is encoded by the AQP5 gene in humans. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 265 residues, a mass of 28.3 kDa, and is a member of the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) protein family. It is known to be localized in the cytoplasmic vesicles and cell membrane and is notably expressed in skin eccrine sweat glands, at the apical cell membrane and at intercellular canaliculi. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The AQP5 gene has been associated with the disease, Keratoderma. Other alias names for this target include PPKB.
The detection range for different AQP5 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 78 pg/mL and as high as 200 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
