PEX1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein peroxisomal biogenesis factor 1, which is encoded by the PEX1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is a known component of the PEX1-PEX6 AAA ATPase complex, a protein dislocase complex that mediates the ATP-dependent extraction of the PEX5 receptor from peroxisomal membranes, an essential step for PEX5 recycling. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 1283 residues, a mass of 142.9 kDa, and is a member of the AAA ATPase protein family. It is known to be localized in the cytoplasm. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The PEX1 gene has been associated with the disease, Peroxisome biogenesis disorder. Other alias names for this target include PBD1A, PBD1B, ZWS, ZWS1, peroxisomal ATPase PEX1, Zellweger syndrome, peroxin-1, and HMLR1.
The detection range for different PEX1 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.156 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.
