The Lactadherin ELISA kits listed below utilize specific antibodies for the plate-based assay of Lactadherin in various samples. Lactadherin is another term for the MFGE8 gene, which encodes the protein, milk fat globule EGF and factor V/VIII domain containing in humans. It has been reported that Lactadherin plays a role in angiogenesis and the apoptotic pathway, among other functions. Structurally, the MFGE8 protein is 387 amino acid residues in length and 43.1 kilodaltons in mass. However, as many as 4 protein isoforms have been identified. Its subcellular localization is in the cytoplasmic vesicles, membrane, and is secreted. This protein is known to be glycosylated. Other names for this target antigen include BA46, BA46, and EDIL1.
There are Lactadherin ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 20 ng/L and as high as 200 ng/mL. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
