These sst2 ELISA kits are immunodetection tools for measuring the levels of sst2 in biological samples. sst2 is an alias of the human SSTR2 gene, which encodes the protein, somatostatin receptor 2. Notably, sst2 is known to play a role in brain development and the regulation of cell proliferation, among other functions. The SSTR2 protein is 369 amino acid residues in length and 41.3 kilodaltons in mass. However, as many as 2 protein isoforms have been identified. It is localized to the cell membrane and cytoplasm of the cell. In terms of tissue specificity, it is reported to be expressed in both pancreatic alpha- and beta-cells. This protein is known to be phosphorylated and glycosylated. Other names for this target antigen include .
The detection range for different sst2 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 31.25 pg/mL and as high as 20 ng/mL. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
