Human OSBPL2 ELISA Kit (HUFI07396)

Targeting oxysterol binding protein-like 2 (OSBPL2), this quantitative immunoassay from Assay Genie enables researchers to measure OSBPL2 concentrations in human biological specimens. OSBPL2 belongs to the oxysterol-binding protein family and plays a role in intracellular lipid transport, vesicle trafficking, and cellular cholesterol homeostasis. Mutations in the OSBPL2 gene have been identified as a cause of autosomal dominant non-syndromic hearing loss (DFNA67), positioning this protein as a focus in auditory and hearing-loss research, as well as in studies of lipid-binding proteins and membrane dynamics.

Configured for 96 individual reactions, the kit supports medium-throughput experimental work and includes the essential reagents for the assay procedure. Researchers investigating lipid metabolism disorders, hereditary hearing impairment, or membrane transport mechanisms can use this kit to quantify OSBPL2 levels. Reagents should be stored under refrigerated conditions to preserve activity through the shelf life of the kit. The product is intended for research use only and is not approved for diagnostic applications.

Application areas include studies of cholesterol transport, oxysterol signaling, and intracellular lipid handling in cell biology and biomedical research contexts. The protein's involvement in vesicle-mediated transport makes it relevant to investigations of membrane trafficking pathways and related signaling cascades in lipid-binding protein research.
