CERS2 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein ceramide synthase 2, which is encoded by the CERS2 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to be a ceramide synthase that catalyzes the transfer of the acyl chain from acyl-CoA to a sphingoid base, with high selectivity toward very-long-chain fatty acyl-CoA (chain length C22-C27). The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid sequence of 380 residues and a mass of 44.9 kDa. It is known to be localized in the ER and is reported to be expressed in kidney, liver, brain, heart, placenta and lung. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated, acetylated and phosphorylated. Other alias names for this target include LASS2, SP260, TMSG1, LAG1 homolog, ceramide synthase 2, LAG1 longevity assurance 2, and L3.
Some CERS2 ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 0.15 ng/mL and as high as 10 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
