The following N-acetylglutamate synthase ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of N-acetylglutamate synthase in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the NAGS gene. This protein is reported to play a role in in the regulation of ureagenesis by producing the essential cofactor N-acetylglutamate (NAG), thus modulating carbamoylphosphate synthase I (CPS1) activity. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 534 residues, a mass of 58.2 kDa, and is a member of the Acetyltransferase protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the mitochondria. In addition, it is reported to be highly expressed in the adult liver, kidney and small intestine. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, N-acetylglutamate synthase deficiency. This protein may also be known as N-acetylglutamate synthase, mitochondrial and amino-acid acetyltransferase.
There are N-acetylglutamate synthase ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 0.156 ng/mL and as high as 10 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.
