The VMAT2 ELISA kits listed below are analytical tools for measuring concentrations of VMAT2 in various samples. VMAT2 is an alternative name for the human SLC18A2 gene, which encodes the protein, solute carrier family 18 member A2. It has been mentioned that VMAT2 plays a role in chemical synaptic transmission and post-embryonic development, among other functions. Structurally, the SLC18A2 protein is 514 amino acid residues in length and 55.7 kilodaltons in mass. However, as many as 2 protein isoforms have been identified. It is localized to the cytoplasmic vesicles of the cell. In terms of tissue specificity, it is reported to be expressed in neuronal and neuroendocrine tissues. This protein is known to be glycosylated. Other names for this target antigen include PKDYS2, SVAT, and SVMT.
There are VMAT2 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 15.625 pg/mL and as high as 10 ng/mL. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
