ODC1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein ornithine decarboxylase 1, which is encoded by the ODC1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to catalyze the first and rate-limiting step of polyamine biosynthesis that converts ornithine into putrescine, which is the precursor for the polyamines, spermidine and spermine. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 461 residues, a mass of 51.1 kDa, and is a member of the Orn/Lys/Arg decarboxylase class-II protein family. The ODC1 gene has been associated with the disease, Bachmann-Bupp syndrome. Other alias names for this target include NEDBA, NEDBIA, ODC, ornithine decarboxylase, and BABS.
There are ODC1 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 31.25 pg/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.
