BST2 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein bone marrow stromal cell antigen 2, which is encoded by the BST2 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in innate immune responses. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 180 residues, a mass of 19.8 kDa, and is a member of the Tetherin protein family. It is known to be localized in the cell membrane, golgi, and cytoplasm and is reported to be highly expressed in the liver, lung, heart and placenta. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally ubiquitinated and glycosylated. Other alias names for this target include HM1.24, TETHERIN, bone marrow stromal antigen 2, HM1.24 antigen, NPC-A-7, antiviral factor tetherin, and CD317.
Some BST2 ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 5 pg/mL and as high as 10 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
