Human CNX (Calnexin) ELISA Kit

The kit is a Sandwich enzyme immunoassay for in vitro quantitative measurement of CNX in serum, plasma and other biological fluids. Detection Range: 0.63--40ng/ml. Sensitivity: 0.38ng/ml. Protein function: Calcium-binding protein that interacts with newly synthesized glycoproteins in the endoplasmic reticulum. It may act in assisting protein assembly and/or in the retention within the ER of unassembled protein subunits. It seems to play a major role in the quality control apparatus of the ER by the retention of incorrectly folded proteins. Associated with partial T-cell antigen receptor complexes that escape the ER of immature thymocytes, it may function as a signaling complex regulating thymocyte maturation. Additionally it may play a role in receptor- mediated endocytosis at the synapse. [The UniProt Consortium]
