The following Pericentrin ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of pericentrin in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the PCNT gene. This protein is reported to be an integral component of the filamentous matrix of the centrosome involved in the initial establishment of organized microtubule arrays in both mitosis and meiosis. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid sequence of 3336 residues and a mass of 378 kDa. Its subcellular location is known to be in the cytoplasm. In addition, it is reported to be expressed in all tissues tested, including placenta, liver, kidney and thymus. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally ubiquitinated and cleaved. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Microcephalic osteodysplastic primordial dwarfism. This protein may also be known as MOPD2, PCN, PCNT2, PCNTB, PCTN2, SCKL4, kendrin, and KEN.
Some pericentrin ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 0.156 ng/mL and as high as 20 ng/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.
