The following alkylglycerone phosphate synthase ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of alkylglycerone phosphate synthase in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the AGPS gene. This protein is known to catalyze the exchange of the acyl chain in acyl-dihydroxyacetonephosphate (acyl-DHAP) for a long chain fatty alcohol, yielding the first ether linked intermediate, ie. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 658 residues, a mass of 72.9 kDa, and is a member of the FAD-binding oxidoreductase/transferase type 4 protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the peroxisomes. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata. This protein may also be known as ADAS, ADHAPS, ADPS, ALDHPSY, RCDP3, and ADAP-S.
There are alkylglycerone phosphate synthase ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 0.156 ng/mL and as high as 10 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.
