The following carnitine O-acetyltransferase ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of carnitine O-acetyltransferase in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the CRAT gene. This protein is known to catalyze the reversible transfer of acyl groups from carnitine to coenzyme A (CoA) and regulates the acyl-CoA/CoA ratio. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 626 residues, a mass of 70.9 kDa, and is a member of the Carnitine/choline acetyltransferase protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the mitochondria and ER. As many as 3 protein isoforms have been reported. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation. This protein may also be known as CAT1, NBIA8, carnitine acetylase, and CAT.
There are carnitine O-acetyltransferase ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 0.1 ng/mL and as high as 200 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.
