NKX6-2 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein NK6 homeobox 2, which is encoded by the NKX6-2 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to be a transcription factor with repressor activity involved in the regulation of axon-glial interactions at myelin paranodes in oligodendrocytes. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid sequence of 277 residues and a mass of 29.3 kDa. It is known to be localized in the nucleus and is reported be highly expressed in the brain. The NKX6-2 gene has been associated with the disease, Spastic ataxia. Other alias names for this target include NK homeobox family 6, B, NK6 transcription factor related, locus 2, glial and testis-specific homeobox protein, homeobox 6B, homeobox protein NK-6 homolog B, and homeobox protein Nkx-6.2.
The detection range for different NKX6-2 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.312 ng/mL and as high as 20 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
