The following proopiomelanocortin ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of proopiomelanocortin in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the POMC gene. This protein has been described to function in cell to cell signaling and carbohydrate metabolism and homeostasis. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 267 residues, a mass of 29.4 kDa, and is a member of the POMC protein family. It has been described to be a secreted protein. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally O-glycosylated and cleaved. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Obesity. This protein may also be known as ACTH and CLIP.
There are proopiomelanocortin ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 0.12 pg/mL 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.
