TGFA ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein transforming growth factor alpha, which is encoded by the TGFA gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in angiogenesis and intracellular signal transduction. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid sequence of 160 residues and a mass of 17 kDa. It is known to be localized in the cell membrane. As many as 5 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. Other alias names for this target include protransforming growth factor alpha, TGF-alpha, and TFGA.
The detection range for different TGFA ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 1.37 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.
