The Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase 1B, Muscle ELISA kits listed below utilize specific antibodies for the plate-based assay of Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase 1B, Muscle in various samples. Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase 1B, Muscle is another term for the CPT1B gene, which encodes the protein, carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1B in humans. It has been reported that Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase 1B, Muscle plays a role in fatty acid metabolism, among other functions. Structurally, the CPT1B protein is 772 amino acid residues in length and 87.8 kilodaltons in mass. However, as many as 4 protein isoforms have been identified. It is localized to the mitochondria of the cell. In terms of tissue specificity, it is reported be highly expressed in heart and skeletal muscle. Other names for this target antigen include CPT1-M, CPT1M, and CPTI.
Some Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase 1B, Muscle ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 0.156 ng/mL and as high as 10 ng/mL. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
