RPN1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein ribophorin I, which is encoded by the RPN1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is a known subunit of the oligosaccharyl transferase (OST) complex that catalyzes the initial transfer of a defined glycan (Glc(3)Man(9)GlcNAc(2) in eukaryotes) from the lipid carrier dolichol-pyrophosphate to an asparagine residue within an Asn-X-Ser/Thr consensus motif in nascent polypeptide chains, the first step in protein N-glycosylation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 607 residues, a mass of 68.6 kDa, and is a member of the OST1 protein family. It is known to be localized in the ER and is reported to be expressed in all tissues tested. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. Other alias names for this target include RBPH1, dolichyl-diphosphooligosaccharide--protein glycosyltransferase subunit 1, RPN-I, dolichyl-diphosphooligosaccharide-protein glycosyltransferase 67 kDa subunit, and OST1.
Some RPN1 ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 0.156 ng/mL and as high as 100 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
