Porcine TG (Thyroglobulin) ELISA Kit

This ELISA kit applies to the in vitro quantitative determination of Porcine TG concentrations in serum, plasma and other biological fluids. Photometric. Detection Range: 3.12~200ng/mL. Sensitivity: 1.88ng/mL. Protein function: Acts as a substrate for the production of iodinated thyroid hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) (PubMed:7021557). The synthesis of T3 and T4 involves iodination of selected tyrosine residues of TG/thyroglobulin followed by their oxidative coupling (PubMed:7021557). Following TG re-internalization and lysosomal- mediated proteolysis, T3 and T4 are released from the polypeptide backbone leading to their secretion into the bloodstream. One dimer produces 7 thyroid hormone molecules. [The UniProt Consortium] Assay Time: 3.5h. Tested Sample Types: Serum, plasma and other biological fluids
