HEXA ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein hexosaminidase subunit alpha, which is encoded by the HEXA gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in neuronal differentiation and the metabolism of lipids. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 529 residues, a mass of 60.7 kDa, and is a member of the Glycosyl hydrolase 20 protein family. It is known to be localized in the lysosomes. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The HEXA gene has been associated with the disease, GM2-gangliosidosis. Other alias names for this target include beta-hexosaminidase subunit alpha, N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase subunit alpha, beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase subunit alpha, hexosaminidase A (alpha polypeptide), hexosaminidase subunit A, and TSD.
There are HEXA ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 10 ng/L and as high as 200 µg/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
