The following Neuropeptide W ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of neuropeptide W in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the NPW gene. This protein is reported to play a regulatory role in the organization of neuroendocrine signals accessing the anterior pituitary gland. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 165 residues, a mass of 18 kDa, and is a member of the Neuropeptide B/W protein family. It has been described to be a secreted protein. In addition, it is notably expressed in cerebrospinal fluid and urine. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally glycosylated. This protein may also be known as prepro-neuropeptide W, preproprotein L8, and hPPL8.
There are Neuropeptide W ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 20 ng/L and as high as 1000 ng/mL. Use the search filters to narrow your search and click on the ELISA kits below for more detailed information, such as reactivity and assay sensitivity.
