PANX1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein pannexin 1, which is encoded by the PANX1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to be a structural component of the gap junctions and the hemichannels involved in the ATP release and nucleotide permeation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 426 residues, a mass of 48.1 kDa, and is a member of the Pannexin protein family. It is known to be localized in the ER and cell membrane and is widely expressed across many tissue types. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally N-glycosylated. The PANX1 gene has been associated with the disease, Oocyte maturation defect. Other alias names for this target include OOMD7, OZEMA7, PX1, UNQ2529, innexin, and MRS1.
The detection range for different PANX1 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.15 ng/mL and as high as 10 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
