Human Tspo (Translocator protein) ELISA Kit (HUFI03410)

Human Tspo (Translocator protein) ELISA Kit from Assay Genie is a pre-coated immunoassay with a high sensitivity and broad range and has been designed to measure Human Tspo (Translocator protein) in serum, plasma & cell culture supernatant samples. The Human Tspo (Translocator protein) ELISA Kit accurately measures natural Human Tspo (Translocator protein) levels quantified versus standard curves obtained and is based on antibodies raised against a recombinant Human Tspo (Translocator protein) peptide. Protein function: Can bind protoporphyrin IX and may play a role in the transport of porphyrins and heme. Promotes the transport of cholesterol across mitochondrial membranes and may play a role in lipid metabolism (PubMed:24814875), but its precise physiological role is controversial. It is apparently not required for steroid hormone biosynthesis. Was initially identified as peripheral- type benzodiazepine receptor, can also bind isoquinoline carboxamides (PubMed:1847678).
