The following carbonic anhydrase 4 ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of carbonic anhydrase 4 in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the CA4 gene. This protein is known to catalyze the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide into bicarbonate and protons and thus is essential to maintaining intracellular and extracellular pH. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 312 residues, a mass of 35 kDa, and is a member of the Alpha-carbonic anhydrase protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the cell membrane. In addition, it is reported to be expressed in the endothelium of the choriocapillaris in eyes. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Retinitis pigmentosa. This protein may also be known as Car4, RP17, CA-IV, carbonate dehydratase IV, carbonic anhydrase IV, carbonic dehydratase IV, and CAIV.
Some carbonic anhydrase 4 ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 78 pg/mL and as high as 50 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.
