The following ceramide kinase ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of ceramide kinase in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the CERK gene. This protein is known to catalyze specifically the phosphorylation of ceramide to form ceramide 1-phosphate. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid sequence of 537 residues and a mass of 60 kDa. Its subcellular location is known to be in the cell membrane and cytoplasm. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. This protein may also be known as lipid kinase 4, lipid kinase LK4, and acylsphingosine kinase.
The detection range for different ceramide kinase ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 10 ng/L and as high as 200 ng/mL.
