HERPUD1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein homocysteine inducible ER protein with ubiquitin like domain 1, which is encoded by the HERPUD1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is a known component of the endoplasmic reticulum quality control (ERQC) system also called ER-associated degradation (ERAD) involved in ubiquitin-dependent degradation of misfolded endoplasmic reticulum proteins. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid sequence of 391 residues and a mass of 43.7 kDa. It is known to be localized in the ER and is reported to be widely expressed in the brain, expression seems to be restricted to neurons and vascular smooth muscle cells. As many as 4 protein isoforms have been reported. Other alias names for this target include Mif1, SUP, homocysteine-responsive endoplasmic reticulum-resident ubiquitin-like domain member 1 protein, and HERP.
The detection range for different HERPUD1 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 10 ng/L 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.
