HRG ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein histidine rich glycoprotein, which is encoded by the HRG gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to be a plasma glycoprotein that binds a number of ligands such as heme, heparin, heparan sulfate, thrombospondin, plasminogen, and divalent metal ions. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid sequence of 525 residues and a mass of 59.6 kDa. It is known to be secreted and is reported to be expressed in macrophages and in malignant cells. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally N-glycosylated and cleaved. The HRG gene has been associated with the disease, Thrombophilia due to histidine-rich glycoprotein deficiency. Other alias names for this target include HRGP, THPH11, histidine-proline-rich glycoprotein, and HPRG.
Some HRG ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 15.6 pg/mL and as high as 900 µg/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
