AKR1C1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C1, which is encoded by the AKR1C1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in cholesterol metabolism and homeostasis and epithelial cell differentiation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 323 residues, a mass of 36.8 kDa, and is a member of the Aldo/keto reductase protein family. It is known to be localized in the cytoplasm and is reported to be expressed in all tissues tested including liver, prostate, testis, adrenal gland, brain, uterus, mammary gland and keratinocytes. Other alias names for this target include 20-ALPHA-HSD, C9, DD1, DD1/DD2, DDH, DDH1, H-37, and 2-ALPHA-HSD.
There are AKR1C1 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 0.156 ng/mL and as high as 10 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
