PDGFA ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein platelet derived growth factor subunit A, which is encoded by the PDGFA gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to be a growth factor that plays an essential role in the regulation of embryonic development, cell proliferation, cell migration, survival and chemotaxis. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 211 residues, a mass of 24 kDa, and is a member of the PDGF/VEGF growth factor protein family. It is known to be secreted. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. Other alias names for this target include PDGF A-chain, PDGF subunit A, platelet-derived growth factor A-chain, platelet-derived growth factor alpha chain, platelet-derived growth factor alpha polypeptide, and PDGF1.
Some PDGFA ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 0.312 pg/mL and as high as 100 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
