The following Perilipin 1 ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of perilipin 1 in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the PLIN1 gene. This protein has been described to function in the metabolism of lipids. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 522 residues, a mass of 56 kDa, and is a member of the Perilipin protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the ER. In addition, it is notably expressed in adipocytes from white adipose tissue. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally phosphorylated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Lipodystrophy. This protein may also be known as PERI, PLIN, lipid droplet-associated protein, and FPLD4.
There are Perilipin 1 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 10 ng/L and as high as 40 ng/mL. Use the search filters to narrow your search and click on the ELISA kits below for more detailed information, such as reactivity and assay sensitivity.
