PLA2G4A ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein phospholipase A2 group IVA, which is encoded by the PLA2G4A gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to have primarily calcium-dependent phospholipase and lysophospholipase activities, with a major role in membrane lipid remodeling and biosynthesis of lipid mediators of the inflammatory response. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid sequence of 749 residues and a mass of 85.2 kDa. It is known to be localized in the nucleus, golgi, and cytoplasm and is reported to be expressed in various cells and tissues such as macrophages, neutrophils, fibroblasts and lung endothelium. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally phosphorylated. The PLA2G4A gene has been associated with the disease, Gastrointestinal ulceration. Other alias names for this target include PLA2G4, cPLA2, cPLA2-alpha, cytosolic phospholipase A2, calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding protein, and GURDP.
There are PLA2G4A ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 30 ng/L and as high as 100 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
