The following fibrinogen alpha chain ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of fibrinogen alpha chain in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the FGA gene. This protein has been described to function in adaptive immune responses and cell matrix adhesion. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid sequence of 866 residues and a mass of 95 kDa. It has been described to be a secreted protein. In addition, it is notably expressed in blood plasma. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally O-glycosylated, N-glycosylated and phosphorylated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Congenital afibrinogenemia. This protein may also be known as Fib2 and fibrinogen, A alpha polypeptide.
Some fibrinogen alpha chain ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 0.082 pg/mL and as high as 60 µg/mL. Use the search filters to narrow your search and click on the ELISA kits below for more detailed information, such as reactivity and assay sensitivity.
