The PGC1A ELISA kits listed below utilize specific antibodies for the plate-based assay of PGC1A in various samples. PGC1A is another term for the PPARGC1A gene, which encodes the protein, PPARG coactivator 1 alpha in humans. It has been reported that PGC1A plays a role in adipose tissue development and brown fat cell differentiation, among other functions. Structurally, the PPARGC1A protein is 798 amino acid residues in length and 91 kilodaltons in mass. However, as many as 9 protein isoforms have been identified. It is localized to the nucleus and cytoplasm of the cell. This protein is known to be ubiquitinated, acetylated and phosphorylated. Other names for this target antigen include LEM6, PGC-1(alpha), and PGC-1alpha. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
