The following erythroferrone ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of erythroferrone in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the ERFE gene. This protein is reported to be an iron-regulatory hormone that acts as an erythroid regulator after hemorrhage: produced by erythroblasts following blood loss and mediates suppression of hepcidin (HAMP) expression in the liver, thereby promoting increased iron absorption and mobilization from stores. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 354 residues, a mass of 37.3 kDa, and is a member of the Adipolin/erythroferrone protein family. It has been described to be a secreted protein. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally N-glycosylated. This protein may also be known as family with sequence similarity 132, member B, myonectin, protein FAM132B, and complement C1q tumor necrosis factor-related protein 15.
Some erythroferrone ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 15.6 pg/mL and as high as 20 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.
