These Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase, Isoenzyme 1 ELISA kits are immunodetection tools for measuring specific protein levels in biological samples. Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase, Isoenzyme 1 is an alias of the human PDK1 gene, which encodes the protein, pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1. Notably, Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase, Isoenzyme 1 is known to play a role in cell proliferation and carbohydrate metabolism and homeostasis, among other functions. The PDK1 protein is 436 amino acid residues in length and 49.2 kilodaltons in mass. However, as many as 2 protein isoforms have been identified. It is localized to the mitochondria of the cell. In terms of tissue specificity, it is reported to be highly expressed in the heart. This protein is known to be phosphorylated. Other names for this target antigen include [Pyruvate dehydrogenase (acetyl-transferring)] kinase isozyme 1, mitochondrial, pyruvate dehydrogenase (acetyl-transferring) kinase isozyme 1, mitochondrial, and PDH kinase 1.
Some Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase, Isoenzyme 1 ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 0.78 ng/mL and as high as 50 ng/mL. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
