DCT ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein dopachrome tautomerase, which is encoded by the DCT gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to play a role in in melanin biosynthesis. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 519 residues, a mass of 59.1 kDa, and is a member of the Tyrosinase protein family. It is known to be localized in the membrane. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The DCT gene has been associated with the disease, Albinism. Other alias names for this target include TRP-2, TYRP2, L-dopachrome tautomerase, DT, L-dopachrome Delta-isomerase, L-dopachrome isomerase, TRP2, and OCA8.
There are DCT ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 46.88 pg/mL and as high as 25 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
