PLOD1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein procollagen-lysine,2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 1, which is encoded by the PLOD1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to be part of a complex composed of PLOD1, P3H3 and P3H4 that catalyzes hydroxylation of lysine residues in collagen alpha chains and is required for normal assembly and cross-linkling of collagen fibrils (By similarity). The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid sequence of 727 residues and a mass of 83.6 kDa. It is known to be localized in the ER and membrane. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The PLOD1 gene has been associated with the disease, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Other alias names for this target include EDSKCL1, LH, LH1, LLH, PLOD, lysine hydroxylase, lysyl hydroxlase 1, and EDS6.
Some PLOD1 ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 15.625 pg/mL and as high as 50 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
