The following Glutamate Decarboxylase 1 ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of glutamate decarboxylase 1 in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the GAD1 gene. This protein is known to catalyze the synthesis of the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate as cofactor. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 594 residues, a mass of 66.9 kDa, and is a member of the Group II decarboxylase protein family. As many as 4 protein isoforms have been reported. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy. This protein may also be known as DEE89, GAD, SCP, 67 kDa glutamic acid decarboxylase, GAD-67, glutamate decarboxylase 1 (brain, 67kDa), and CPSQ1.
Some glutamate decarboxylase 1 ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 3 ng/L and as high as 100 ng/mL. Use the search filters to narrow your search and click on the ELISA kits below for more detailed information, such as reactivity and assay sensitivity.
