The following Carboxypeptidase A6 ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of carboxypeptidase A6 in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the CPA6 gene. This protein is suspected to be involved in the proteolytic inactivation of enkephalins and neurotensin in some brain areas. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 437 residues, a mass of 51 kDa, and is a member of the Peptidase M14 protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the extracellular matrix and is secreted. In addition, it is reported to be expressed in the hippocampus, nucleus raphe, and cortex. As many as 3 protein isoforms have been reported. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally glycosylated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Epilepsy. This protein may also be known as carboxypeptidase B.
There are carboxypeptidase A6 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 0.156 ng/mL and as high as 10 ng/mL. Use the search filters to narrow your search and click on the ELISA kits below for more detailed information, such as reactivity and assay sensitivity.
