Human Ferroportin (FPN) ELISA Kit
No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Ferroportin (FPN) and analogues was observed.
To minimize extra influence on the performance, operation procedures and lab conditions, especially room temperature, air humidity, incubator temperature should be strictly controlled. It is also strongly suggested that the whole assay is performed by the same operator from the beginning to the end.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a cell membrane protein that may be involved in iron export from duodenal epithelial cells. Defects in this gene are a cause of hemochromatosis type 4 (HFE4). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
SLC40A1: May be involved in iron export from duodenal epithelial cell and also in transfer of iron between maternal and fetal circulation. Mediates iron efflux in the presence of a ferroxidase (hephaestin and/or ceruloplasmin). Defects in SLC40A1 are the cause of hemochromatosis type 4 (HFE4). HFE4 is an autosomal dominant iron-loading disorder characterized by early iron accumulation in reticuloendothelial cells and a marked increase in serum ferritin before elevation of the transferrin saturation. Belongs to the ferroportin (FP) (TC 2.A.100) family. SLC40A subfamily.

Product Notes
The Human FPN slc40a1 (Catalog #AAA2087015) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2087015 ELISA Kit recognizes Human FPN. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Ferroportin (FPN), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
