GJA1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein gap junction protein alpha 1, which is encoded by the GJA1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in bone development and cell to cell signaling. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 382 residues, a mass of 43 kDa, and is a member of the Connexin protein family. It is known to be localized in the ER and cell membrane and is reported to be expressed in the heart and fetal cochlea. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally sumoylated, acetylated and phosphorylated. The GJA1 gene has been associated with the disease, Oculodentodigital dysplasia. Other alias names for this target include CMDR, CX43, EKVP, EKVP3, GJAL, HLHS1, HSS, and AVSD3.
There are GJA1 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 31.25 pg/mL and as high as 100 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
