TNC ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein tenascin C, which is encoded by the TNC gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in cell adhesion and osteoblast differentiation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 2201 residues, a mass of 240.9 kDa, and is a member of the Tenascin protein family. It is known to be localized in the extracellular matrix and is secreted and is notably expressed in fibroblasts. As many as 6 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The TNC gene has been associated with the disease, Deafness. Other alias names for this target include DFNA56, GMEM, GP, HXB, JI, TN, tenascin, and 150-225.
Some TNC ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 6.1 pg/mL and as high as 250 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
