SFTPA1: ELISA Kits

Surfactant protein A is a protein with two isoforms, with lengths of 248 and 263 amino acids and weights of approximately 26 and 28 kDa respectively. Surfactant protein A binds to surfactant phospholipids in the presence of calcium ions and helps lower the surface tension in the alveoli of the lungs. Current research is being done on several diseases and disorders linked to this protein including pulmonary fibrosis, allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis, pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, ...
