Recoverin Line Assay


Recombinant Line Assay for the detection of autoantibodies to Recoverin.
Recoverin is a photoreceptor -specific calcium-binding protein with a molecular weight of ~23 kD. It has been identified as autoantigen in a degenerative disease of the retina called CAR (= Cancer Associated Retinopathy), a paraneoplastic syndrome, which leads to the degeneration of photoreceptors and hence to blindness. Usually the underlying tumor is a small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Flyer
