The following Malic enzyme 1 ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of malic enzyme 1 in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the ME1 gene. This protein is known to catalyze the oxidative decarboxylation of (S)-malate in the presence of NADP(+) and divalent metal ions, and decarboxylation of oxaloacetate. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 572 residues, a mass of 64.2 kDa, and is a member of the Malic enzymes protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the cytoplasm. In addition, it is reported to be expressed in all tissues tested including liver, placenta and white adipose tissue. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. This protein may also be known as MES, NADP-dependent malic enzyme, Malic enzyme, cytoplasmic, NADP-ME, malate dehydrogenase (oxaloacetate-decarboxylating) (NADP(+)), and HUMNDME.
Some Malic enzyme 1 ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 0.2 ng/mL and as high as 60 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.
