EIF3K ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 subunit K, which is encoded by the EIF3K gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is a known component of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 (eIF-3) complex, which is required for several steps in the initiation of protein synthesis. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 218 residues, a mass of 25.1 kDa, and is a member of the EIF-3 subunit K protein family. It is known to be localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm and is found to be widely expressed, with the highest levels of expression in the brain, testis and kidney. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. Other alias names for this target include EIF3-p28, EIF3S12, HSPC029, M9, MSTP001, PLAC-24, PLAC24, and ARG134.
The detection range for different EIF3K ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.156 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.
