The following folate receptor alpha ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of folate receptor alpha in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the FOLR1 gene. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid sequence of 257 residues and a mass of 29.8 kDa. Its subcellular location is known to be in the cytoplasmic vesicles, cell membrane, and is secreted. In addition, it is notably expressed in tissues of epithelial origin.. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally glycosylated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Neurodegeneration due to cerebral folate transport deficiency. This protein may also be known as FOLR, FRalpha, NCFTD, FR-alpha, KB cells FBP, adult folate-binding protein, folate binding protein, and FBP.
Some folate receptor alpha ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 15.6 pg/mL and as high as 25 ng/mL. Use the search filters to narrow your search and click on the ELISA kits below for more detailed information, such as reactivity and assay sensitivity.
