Mouse Prosalusin (Tor2a) ELISA Kit

From Assay Genie, this sandwich ELISA kit is designed for the precise measurement of Prosalusin (Tor2a) levels in mouse samples, with reactivity specific to mouse. It is intended for research use only.

The kit is suitable for use with serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids. Detection is performed by colorimetric ELISA, and the assay has a reported detection range of 0.312-20ng/mL with a sensitivity of 0.183ng/mL. Specificity covers natural and recombinant mouse Prosalusin.

Prosalusin, also known by the synonyms Torsin family 2 member A and Torsin-2A (UniProt P0C7W3), is a secreted protein with a molecular weight of 35,897 Da. Salusin may act as an endocrine and/or paracrine factor able to increase intracellular calcium concentrations and induce cell mitogenesis, and may also be a potent hypotensive peptide. Prosalusin/Tor2a is described as a key protein involved in mediating various physiological functions, including cell growth and proliferation, and elevated levels have been associated with certain diseases, making it a useful biomarker for research into disease pathogenesis and potential therapeutic interventions.
