The Kidney Injury Molecule 1 ELISA kits listed below utilize specific antibodies for the plate-based assay of Kidney Injury Molecule 1 in various samples. Kidney Injury Molecule 1 is another term for the HAVCR1 gene, which encodes the protein, hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 1 in humans. The target protein is reported to be a phosphatidylserine receptor that plays an important functional role in regulatory B-cells homeostasis including generation, expansion and suppressor functions (By similarity). Structurally, the HAVCR1 protein is described to be 364 amino acid residues in length and 39.3 kilodaltons in mass. It is localized to the cell membrane of the cell. In terms of tissue specificity, it is found to be widely expressed, with highest levels in kidney and testis. This protein is known to be ubiquitinated and glycosylated. Other names for this target antigen include CD365, HAVCR, and KIM-1.
The detection range for different Kidney Injury Molecule 1 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 5.49 pg/mL and as high as 100 ng/mL. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
