ATG5 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein autophagy related 5, which is encoded by the ATG5 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in autophagic vesicle formation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 275 residues, a mass of 32.4 kDa, and is a member of the ATG5 protein family. It is known to be localized in the membrane and cytoplasm and is ubiquitously expressed across many tissue types. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally acetylated. The ATG5 gene has been associated with the disease, Spinocerebellar ataxia. Other alias names for this target include APG5-LIKE, APG5L, ASP, SCAR25, hAPG5, autophagy protein 5, APG5 autophagy 5-like, and APG5.
The detection range for different ATG5 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 10 ng/L and as high as 50 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
