TNF ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein tumor necrosis factor, which is encoded by the TNF gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is a reported to be a cytokine that binds to TNFRSF1A/TNFR1 and TNFRSF1B/TNFBR. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 233 residues, a mass of 25.6 kDa, and is a member of the Tumor necrosis factor protein family. It is known to be localized in the cell membrane and is secreted. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally O-glycosylated, cleaved, myristoylated and phosphorylated. The TNF gene has been associated with the disease, Psoriatic arthritis. Other alias names for this target include TNF-alpha, TNFA, TNFSF2, TNLG1F, APC1 protein, TNF, macrophage-derived, TNF, monocyte-derived, and DIF.
The detection range for different TNF ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.14 pg/mL and as high as 9 µg/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
