DISC1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein DISC1 scaffold protein, which is encoded by the DISC1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to be involved in regulation of multiple aspects of embryonic and adult neurogenesis. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid sequence of 854 residues and a mass of 93.6 kDa. It is known to be localized in the mitochondria and cytoplasm and is ubiquitously expressed across many tissue types. As many as 11 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally ubiquitinated. The DISC1 gene has been associated with the disease, Schizophrenia. Other alias names for this target include SCZD9, disrupted in schizophrenia 1 protein, and C1orf136.
The detection range for different DISC1 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.156 ng/mL and as high as 20 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
