The following very low density lipoprotein receptor ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of very low density lipoprotein receptor in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the VLDLR gene. This protein has been described to function in cholesterol metabolism and homeostasis and the metabolism of lipids. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid sequence of 873 residues and a mass of 96.1 kDa. Its subcellular location is known to be in the cell membrane. In addition, it is notably expressed in heart and skeletal muscle; also ovary and kidney; not in liver. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally glycosylated and ubiquitinated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Cerebellar ataxia, impaired intellectual development, and dysequilibrium syndrome. This protein may also be known as CARMQ1, CHRMQ1, VLDLRCH, VLDL receptor, and CAMRQ1.
The detection range for different very low density lipoprotein receptor ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.1 ng/mL and as high as 200 ng/mL.
