PLK1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein polo like kinase 1, which is encoded by the PLK1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is a type of serine/threonine-protein kinase that performs several important functions throughout M phase of the cell cycle, including the regulation of centrosome maturation and spindle assembly, the removal of cohesins from chromosome arms, the inactivation of anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) inhibitors, and the regulation of mitotic exit and cytokinesis. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 603 residues, a mass of 68.3 kDa, and is a member of the Ser/Thr protein kinase protein family. It is known to be localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally ubiquitinated and phosphorylated. Other alias names for this target include STPK13, serine/threonine-protein kinase PLK1, cell cycle regulated protein kinase, polo (Drosophia)-like kinase, serine/threonine-protein kinase 13, and PLK.
There are PLK1 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 7.8 pg/mL and as high as 1000 pg/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
