LALBA ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein lactalbumin alpha, which is encoded by the LALBA gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is a regulatory subunit of lactose synthase, changes the substrate specificity of galactosyltransferase in the mammary gland making glucose a good acceptor substrate for this enzyme. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 142 residues, a mass of 16.2 kDa, and is a member of the Glycosyl hydrolase 22 protein family. It is known to be secreted and is reported to have mammary gland specific expression. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. Other alias names for this target include LYZG, alpha-lactalbumin, lactose synthase B protein, lysozyme G, lysozyme-like protein 7, and HAMLET.
Some LALBA ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 6.25 pg/mL and as high as 4500 µg/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
