The following cartilage associated protein ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of cartilage associated protein in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the CRTAP gene. This protein has been described to function in protein stabilization and spermatogenesis. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 401 residues, a mass of 46.6 kDa, and is a member of the Leprecan protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the extracellular matrix and is secreted. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally glycosylated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Osteogenesis imperfecta. This protein may also be known as LEPREL3, OI7, P3H5, leprecan-like 3, prolyl 3-hydroxylase family member 5 (non-enzymatic), and CASP.
There are cartilage associated protein ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 20 ng/L and as high as 10 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.
