HLA-DPA1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein major histocompatibility complex, class II, DP alpha 1, which is encoded by the HLA-DPA1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to bind peptides derived from antigens that access the endocytic route of antigen presenting cells (APC) and presents them on the cell surface for recognition by the CD4 T-cells. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 260 residues, a mass of 29.4 kDa, and is a member of the MHC class II protein family. It is known to be localized in the ER, golgi, lysosomes, and cell membrane. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. Other alias names for this target include DP(W4), DPA1, HLA-DP1A, HLA-DPA, HLA-DPB1, HLADP, HLASB, and DP(W3).
The detection range for different HLA-DPA1 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations 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.
