ADAM8 ELISA Kit (Human) (OKBB00765)

Description of target: A Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 8 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ADAM8 gene. ADAM8 is localized to chromosome 10q26.3. This gene encodes a member of the ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain) family. Members of the ADAM family, such as ADAM8, are cell surface proteases involved in remodeling of extracellular matrix, cell migration, and processing of membrane-bound signaling molecules. They are characterized by disintegrin and metalloprotease domains that confer adhesive properties and proteolytic activities, respectively. And the protein encoded by this gene may be involved in cell adhesion duringneurodegeneration.;Species reactivity: Human;Application: ELISA;Assay info: ;Sensitivity: <10pg/ml
