VCP ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein valosin containing protein, which is encoded by the VCP gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be important for the fragmentation of Golgi stacks during mitosis and for their reassembly after mitosis. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 806 residues, a mass of 89.3 kDa, and is a member of the AAA ATPase protein family. It is known to be localized in the nucleus, ER, and cytoplasm. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally phosphorylated. The VCP gene has been associated with the disease, Inclusion body myopathy with early-onset Paget disease with or without frontotemporal dementia. Other alias names for this target include FTDALS6, TERA, p97, transitional endoplasmic reticulum ATPase, 15S Mg(2+)-ATPase p97 subunit, TER ATPase, and CDC48.
The detection range for different VCP ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 15 ng/L and as high as 20 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
