The following Lanosterol Synthase ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of lanosterol synthase in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the LSS gene. This protein is known to be a key enzyme in the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 732 residues, a mass of 83.3 kDa, and is a member of the Terpene cyclase/mutase protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the ER. In addition, it is widely expressed across many tissue types. As many as 3 protein isoforms have been reported. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Cataracts. This protein may also be known as CTRCT44, HYPT14, OSC, 2,3-epoxysqualene-lanosterol cyclase, epididymis secretory sperm binding protein, and APMR4.
