LPIN1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein lipin 1, which is encoded by the LPIN1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to act as a magnesium-dependent phosphatidate phosphatase enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of phosphatidic acid to diacylglycerol during triglyceride, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis and therefore controls the metabolism of fatty acids at different levels. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 890 residues, a mass of 98.7 kDa, and is a member of the Lipin protein family. It is known to be localized in the nucleus, ER, and cytoplasm and is notably expressed in skeletal muscle. As many as 7 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally sumoylated, acetylated and phosphorylated. The LPIN1 gene has been associated with the disease, Myoglobinuria. Other alias names for this target include PAP1 and phosphatidate phosphatase LPIN1.
There are LPIN1 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 0.15 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.
