Human Latent-transforming growth factor beta-binding protein 1 (LTBP1) ELISA kit

Sample Types: serum, plasma, tissue homogenates Detection Range: 0.156 ng/mL-10 ng/mL Sensitivity: 0.039 ng/mL Assay Principle: quantitative Measurement: SandwichAssay Time: 1-5h Sample Volume: 50-100ulDetection Wavelength: 450 nmProtein function: Key regulator of transforming growth factor beta (TGFB1, TGFB2 and TGFB3) that controls TGF-beta activation by maintaining it in a latent state during storage in extracellular space (PubMed:2022183, PubMed:8617200, PubMed:8939931). Associates specifically via disulfide bonds with the Latency-associated peptide (LAP), which is the regulatory chain of TGF-beta, and regulates integrin-dependent activation of TGF-beta (PubMed:8617200, PubMed:8939931, PubMed:15184403). Outcompeted by LRRC32/GARP for binding to LAP regulatory chain of TGF-beta (PubMed:22278742). [The UniProt Consortium]
