The following gastric inhibitory polypeptide ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of gastric inhibitory polypeptide in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the GIP gene. This protein is reported to be a potent stimulator of insulin secretion and relatively poor inhibitor of gastric acid secretion. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 153 residues, a mass of 17.1 kDa, and is a member of the Glucagon protein family. It has been described to be a secreted protein. This protein may also be known as glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and incretin hormone.
Some gastric inhibitory polypeptide ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 0.1 pg/mL and as high as 200 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.
