The following beta-carotene oxygenase 2 ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of beta-carotene oxygenase 2 in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the BCO2 gene. This protein has been described to function in metabolic processes. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 579 residues, a mass of 65.7 kDa, and is a member of the Carotenoid oxygenase protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the mitochondria. In addition, it is reported to be highly expressed in retinal pigment epithelium. As many as 5 protein isoforms have been reported. This protein may also be known as b,b-carotene-9',10'-dioxygenase, beta,beta-carotene 9',10'-oxygenase, beta-carotene 9',10' oxygenase, beta-carotene dioxygenase 2, and carotenoid-cleaving dioxygenase, mitochondrial.
The detection range for different beta-carotene oxygenase 2 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.78 ng/mL and as high as 50 ng/mL.
