GLA ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein galactosidase alpha, which is encoded by the GLA gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to catalyze the hydrolysis of glycosphingolipids and participates in their degradation in the lysosome. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 429 residues, a mass of 48.8 kDa, and is a member of the Glycosyl hydrolase 27 protein family. It is known to be localized in the lysosomes. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The GLA gene has been associated with the disease, Fabry disease. Other alias names for this target include alpha-galactosidase A, agalsidase alfa, alpha-D-galactosidase A, alpha-D-galactoside galactohydrolase 1, alpha-gal A, and GALA.
There are GLA ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 3.125 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.
