DEFB118 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein defensin beta 118, which is encoded by the DEFB118 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in cell matrix adhesion and innate immune responses. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 123 residues, a mass of 13.6 kDa, and is a member of the Beta-defensin protein family. It is known to be secreted and is reported to have high-level and epididymis-specific expression. Other alias names for this target include epididymal secretory protein 13.6, epididymis secretory sperm binding protein, epididymus specific clone 42, and defensin, beta 18.
Some DEFB118 ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 0.156 ng/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.
