CERK ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein ceramide kinase, which is encoded by the CERK gene in humans. Functionally, 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. It is known to be localized in the cell membrane and cytoplasm. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. Other alias names for this target include lipid kinase 4, lipid kinase LK4, and acylsphingosine kinase.
Some CERK ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 10 ng/L and as high as 200 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
