The following Lactalbumin alpha ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of lactalbumin alpha in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the LALBA gene. 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 has been described to be a secreted protein. In addition, it is reported to have mammary gland specific expression. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally glycosylated. This protein may also be known as LYZG, alpha-lactalbumin, lactose synthase B protein, lysozyme G, lysozyme-like protein 7, and HAMLET.
Some Lactalbumin alpha ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 6.25 pg/mL and as high as 4500 µg/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.
