Human IFITM2 (Interferon-induced transmembrane protein 2) ELISA Kit (HUFI07775)

Human IFITM2 (Interferon-induced transmembrane protein 2) ELISA Kit from Assay Genie is a pre-coated immunoassay with a high sensitivity and broad range and has been designed to measure Human IFITM2 (Interferon-induced transmembrane protein 2) in serum, plasma & cell culture supernatant samples. The Human IFITM2 (Interferon-induced transmembrane protein 2) ELISA Kit accurately measures natural Human IFITM2 (Interferon-induced transmembrane protein 2) levels quantified versus standard curves obtained and is based on antibodies raised against a recombinant Human IFITM2 (Interferon-induced transmembrane protein 2) peptide. Protein function: IFN-induced antiviral protein which inhibits the entry of viruses to the host cell cytoplasm, permitting endocytosis, but preventing subsequent viral fusion and release of viral contents into the cytosol. Active against multiple viruses, including influenza A virus, SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV), Marburg virus (MARV), Ebola virus (EBOV), Dengue virus (DNV), West Nile virus (WNV), human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). Can inhibit: influenza virus hemagglutinin protein-mediated viral entry, MARV and EBOV GP1,2-mediated viral entry, SARS-CoV S protein-mediated viral entry and VSV G protein-mediated viral entry. Induces cell cycle arrest and mediates apoptosis by caspase activation and in p53-independent manner. [The UniProt Consortium]
