The following Myosin VI ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of myosin VI in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the MYO6 gene. This protein has been described to function in DNA damage pathways and endocytosis. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 1294 residues, a mass of 149.7 kDa, and is a member of the Myosin protein family. It is reported to be expressed in most tissues examined including heart, brain, placenta, pancreas, spleen, thymus, prostate, testis, ovary, small intestine and colon. As many as 6 protein isoforms have been reported. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally phosphorylated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Deafness. This protein may also be known as DFNB37, unconventional myosin-VI, unconventional myosin-6, and DFNA22.
The detection range for different myosin VI ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.156 ng/mL and as high as 10 ng/mL.
