VPS18 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein VPS18 core subunit of CORVET and HOPS complexes, which is encoded by the VPS18 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to play a role in in vesicle-mediated protein trafficking to lysosomal compartments including the endocytic membrane transport and autophagic pathways. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 973 residues, a mass of 110.2 kDa, and is a member of the VPS18 protein family. It is known to be localized in the cytoplasmic vesicles, lysosomes, and membrane and is ubiquitously expressed across many tissue types. Other alias names for this target include VPS18, CORVET/HOPS core subunit, hVPS18, vacuolar protein sorting 18 homolog, vacuolar protein sorting protein 18, and vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 18 homolog.
The detection range for different VPS18 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.
