The following Ribophorin II ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of ribophorin II in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the RPN2 gene. This protein is a known subunit of the oligosaccharyl transferase (OST) complex that catalyzes the initial transfer of a defined glycan (Glc(3)Man(9)GlcNAc(2) in eukaryotes) from the lipid carrier dolichol-pyrophosphate to an asparagine residue within an Asn-X-Ser/Thr consensus motif in nascent polypeptide chains, the first step in protein N-glycosylation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 631 residues, a mass of 69.3 kDa, and is a member of the SWP1 protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the ER. In addition, it is reported to be expressed in all tissues tested. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally glycosylated. This protein may also be known as RPN-II, RPNII, SWP1, dolichyl-diphosphooligosaccharide--protein glycosyltransferase subunit 2, and RIBIIR.
There are Ribophorin II ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 78 pg/mL and as high as 10 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.
