CD59 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein CD59 molecule (CD59 blood group), which is encoded by the CD59 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to be a potent inhibitor of the complement membrane attack complex (MAC) action. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid sequence of 128 residues and a mass of 14.2 kDa. It is known to be localized in the cell membrane and is secreted. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally O-glycosylated and N-glycosylated. The CD59 gene has been associated with the disease, Hemolytic anemia. Other alias names for this target include 1F5, EJ16, EJ30, EL32, G344, HRF-20, HRF20, and 16.3A5.
The detection range for different CD59 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 1.09 pg/mL and as high as 160 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
