Human LBP (Lipopolysaccharide Binding Protein) ELISA Kit

Lipopolysaccharide-Binding Protein; Lbp

LBP_HUMAN ; Reactome: R-HSA-166016 ; Gene ID: 3929

Tissue Specificity: Detected in blood serum (at protein level).

Function: Plays a role in the innate immune response. Binds to the lipid A moiety of bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS), a glycolipid present in the outer membrane of all Gram-negative bacteria. Acts as an affinity enhancer for CD14, facilitating its association with LPS. Promotes the release of cytokines in response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide.
