The following farnesyl diphosphate synthase ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of farnesyl diphosphate synthase in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the FDPS gene. This protein is known to be a key enzyme in isoprenoid biosynthesis which catalyzes the formation of farnesyl diphosphate (FPP), a precursor for several classes of essential metabolites including sterols, dolichols, carotenoids, and ubiquinones. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 419 residues, a mass of 48.3 kDa, and is a member of the FPP/GGPP synthase protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the cytoplasm. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Porokeratosis. This protein may also be known as FPS, farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase, (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate synthase, FPP synthase, and FPPS.
The detection range for different farnesyl diphosphate synthase ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 15 ng/L and as high as 20 ng/mL.
