These CD57 ELISA kits are immunodetection tools for measuring the levels of CD57 in biological samples. CD57 is an alias of the human B3GAT1 gene, which encodes the protein, beta-1,3-glucuronyltransferase 1. Notably, CD57 is known to play a role in carbohydrate metabolism and homeostasis and protein glycosylation, among other functions. The B3GAT1 protein is 334 amino acid residues in length and 38.3 kilodaltons in mass. However, as many as 2 protein isoforms have been identified. Its subcellular localization is in the ER, golgi, and is secreted. In terms of tissue specificity, it is reported to be mainly expressed in the brain. This protein is known to be cleaved and glycosylated. Other names for this target antigen include GLCATP.
The detection range for different CD57 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.15 ng/mL and as high as 10 ng/mL. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
