PYY ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein peptide YY, which is encoded by the PYY gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in intestinal epithelial cell differentiation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 97 residues, a mass of 11.1 kDa, and is a member of the NPY 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 cleaved. Other alias names for this target include PYY1, peptide tyrosine tyrosine, prepro-PYY, and PYY-I.
Some PYY ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 0.1 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.
