The DPPIV ELISA kits listed below are analytical tools for measuring concentrations of DPPIV in various samples. DPPIV is an alternative name for the human FAP gene, which encodes the protein, fibroblast activation protein alpha. It has been mentioned that DPPIV plays a role in intracellular signal transduction and the regulation of transcription, among other functions. Structurally, the FAP protein is 760 amino acid residues in length and 87.7 kilodaltons in mass. However, as many as 2 protein isoforms have been identified. In terms of tissue specificity, it is reported to be expressed in adipose tissue..
Some DPPIV ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 25 pg/mL and as high as 500 ng/mL. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
