NOG ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein noggin, which is encoded by the NOG gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known as an inhibitor of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP) signaling which is required for growth and patterning of the neural tube and somite. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 232 residues, a mass of 25.8 kDa, and is a member of the Noggin protein family. It is known to be secreted. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The NOG gene has been associated with the disease, Symphalangism. Other alias names for this target include SYNS1, SYNS1A, symphalangism 1 (proximal), and SYM1.
The detection range for different NOG ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 20 ng/L and as high as 600 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
