The following Podoplanin ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of podoplanin in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the PDPN gene. This protein is known to mediate effects on cell migration and adhesion through its different partners. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 162 residues, a mass of 16.7 kDa, and is a member of the Podoplanin protein family. It is reported to be highly expressed in placenta, lung, skeletal muscle and brain. As many as 6 protein isoforms have been reported. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally O-glycosylated and cleaved. This protein may also be known as D2-40, GP36, GP40, Gp38, HT1A-1, OTS8, PA2.26, and AGGRUS.
Some podoplanin ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 4.8 pg/mL and as high as 40 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.
