SORD ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein sorbitol dehydrogenase, which is encoded by the SORD gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to be a polyol dehydrogenase that catalyzes the reversible NAD(+)-dependent oxidation of various sugar alcohols. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 357 residues, a mass of 38.3 kDa, and is a member of the Zinc-containing alcohol dehydrogenase protein family. It is known to be localized in the mitochondria and membrane and is notably expressed in liver. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The SORD gene has been associated with the disease, Sorbitol dehydrogenase deficiency with peripheral neuropathy. Other alias names for this target include RDH, SDH, SORD1, SORDD, XDH, (R,R)-butanediol dehydrogenase, L-iditol 2-dehydrogenase, and HEL-S-95n.
The detection range for different SORD ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 62.5 pg/mL and as high as 200 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
