LRP1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein LDL receptor related protein 1, which is encoded by the LRP1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be an endocytic receptor involved in endocytosis and in phagocytosis of apoptotic cells. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 4544 residues, a mass of 504.6 kDa, and is a member of the LDLR protein family. It is notably expressed in liver, brain and lung. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated, cleaved and phosphorylated. The LRP1 gene has been associated with the disease, Keratosis pilaris atrophicans. Other alias names for this target include APOER, APR, CD91, IGFBP-3R, IGFBP3R, IGFBP3R1, KPA, and A2MR.
The detection range for different LRP1 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 31.2 pg/mL and as high as 100 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
