The Glutamate decarboxylase ELISA kits listed below are analytical tools for measuring concentrations of Glutamate decarboxylase in various samples. Glutamate decarboxylase is an alternative name for the human GLUL gene, which encodes the protein, glutamate-ammonia ligase. It has been mentioned that Glutamate decarboxylase plays a role in angiogenesis and cell proliferation, among other functions. Structurally, the GLUL protein is described to be 373 amino acid residues in length and 42.1 kilodaltons in mass. It is localized to the cell membrane, mitochondria, and cytoplasm of the cell. In terms of tissue specificity, it is reported to be expressed in endothelial cells. This protein is known to be ubiquitinated and palmitoylated. Other names for this target antigen include GLNS, GLNS, and GS. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
