Human Cytovillin (CVL) ELISA Kit

As a 96-assay colorimetric ELISA plate configured for human samples, this kit from Assay Genie quantifies cytovillin (CVL), the ezrin-radixin-moesin (ERM) family protein that anchors the actin cytoskeleton to the plasma membrane. The assay is validated for tissue homogenates and cell lysates, supporting workflows in cell biology, oncology, and cytoskeletal signaling research.

Cytovillin, first isolated from intestinal microvilli and later identified as ezrin, participates in cell shape regulation, microvillus assembly, adhesion, and migration. Because altered CVL expression is associated with metastatic behavior in several epithelial tumor models, the kit is frequently applied to studies of tumor invasion, membrane-cytoskeleton coupling, and immune cell signaling. Results are read on a standard microplate reader, and each kit ships with pre-coated wells, reference standards, detection antibody, substrate, and buffer reagents sufficient for the full plate.

The format is intended for research use only and is supplied as a complete set of consumables and standards for one full microplate run.
