NGB ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein neuroglobin, which is encoded by the NGB gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in oxygen transport in the brain. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 151 residues, a mass of 16.9 kDa, and is a member of the Globin protein family. It is known to be localized in the mitochondria and cytoplasm and is reported to be highly expressed in the brain, the strongest expression is seen in the frontal lobe, the subthalamic nucleus and the thalamus. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally phosphorylated.
Some NGB ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 5 pg/mL and as high as 1000 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
