SLC6A3 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein solute carrier family 6 member 3, which is encoded by the SLC6A3 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to mediate sodium- and chloride-dependent transport of dopamine. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 620 residues, a mass of 68.5 kDa, and is a member of the Sodium:neurotransmitter symporter (SNF) (TC 2.A.22) protein family. It is known to be localized in the cell membrane and is reported to be highly expressed in substantia nigra. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The SLC6A3 gene has been associated with the disease, Parkinsonism-dystonia. Other alias names for this target include DAT1, PKDYS, PKDYS1, sodium-dependent dopamine transporter, DA transporter, and DAT.
The detection range for different SLC6A3 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 3.125 pg/mL 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.
