The following thiamin pyrophosphokinase 1 ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of thiamin pyrophosphokinase 1 in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the TPK1 gene. This protein is known to catalyze the phosphorylation of thiamine to thiamine pyrophosphate. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 243 residues, a mass of 27.3 kDa, and is a member of the Thiamine pyrophosphokinase protein family. It is notably expressed in fetal kidney, testis, small intestine and peripheral blood leukocytes, and at very low levels in a variety of tissues. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Thiamine metabolism dysfunction syndrome. This protein may also be known as PP20, THMD5, placental protein 20, thiamine diphosphokinase, thiamine kinase, and HTPK1.
Some thiamin pyrophosphokinase 1 ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 20 ng/L 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.
