A number of ELISA Kits are available that target survival motor neuron 1, an alias of the protein, survival of motor neuron 1, telomeric. The human protein, encoded by the gene SMN1, is a member of the SMN family. The protein's cellular localization is indicated to be cytoplasmic and nuclear. Additional synonyms or past names for this protein may include: BCD541, GEMIN1, SMA, SMA1, SMA2, SMA3, SMA4, SMA@, SMN, SMNT, T-BCD541, TDRD16A. Homology is conserved in other species, such as Mouse, Rat, Zebrafish.
