These ACTH ELISA kits are immunodetection tools for measuring the levels of ACTH in biological samples. ACTH is an alias of the human POMC gene, which encodes the protein, proopiomelanocortin. Notably, ACTH is known to play a role in cell to cell signaling and carbohydrate metabolism and homeostasis, among other functions. The POMC protein is described to be 267 amino acid residues in length and 29.4 kilodaltons in mass. It is known to be a secreted protein. This protein is known to be O-glycosylated and cleaved. Other names for this target antigen include CLIP.
There are ACTH ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 0.097 pg/mL and as high as 25 ng/mL. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
