GC ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein GC vitamin D binding protein, which is encoded by the GC gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in vitamin D transport and storage, scavenging of extracellular G-actin, enhancement of the chemotactic activity of C5 alpha for neutrophils in inflammation and macrophage activation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 474 residues, a mass of 52.9 kDa, and is a member of the ALB/AFP/VDB protein family. It is known to be secreted and is reported to be expressed in the liver. As many as 3 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally O-glycosylated and N-glycosylated. Other alias names for this target include DBP-maf, DBP/GC, GRD3, Gc-MAF, GcMAF, HEL-S-51, VDB, and DBP.
There are GC ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 7.813 pg/mL and as high as 100 µg/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
