The following Growth Differentiation Factor 6 ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of growth differentiation factor 6 in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the GDF6 gene. This protein is reported to be a growth factor that controls proliferation and cellular differentiation in the retina and bone formation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 455 residues, a mass of 50.7 kDa, and is a member of the TGF-beta protein family. It has been described to be a secreted protein. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally glycosylated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Klippel-Feil syndrome. This protein may also be known as bone morphogenetic protein 13 and growth/differentiation factor 16.
Some Growth Differentiation Factor 6 ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 20 ng/L and as high as 100 ng/mL. Use the search filters to narrow your search and click on the ELISA kits below for more detailed information, such as reactivity and assay sensitivity.
