Thymulin ELISA kits are designed for the specific detection of thymulin in biological samples. Thymulin is a compound that is metabolized in humans and can be detected in serum samples. It has the chemical formula C33H54N12O15 and belongs to the polypeptides class of molecules. Thymulin, also known as thymic factor, is a nonapeptide produced by specific epithelial cells in the thymus. It requires zinc for its biological activity, and its peptide sequence is H-Pyr-Ala-Lys-Ser-Gln-Gly-Gly-Ser-Asn-OH. Thymulin is believed to play a role in T-cell differentiation and enhances the actions of T cells and natural killer (NK) cells.
