These Hormone-sensitive Lipase ELISA kits are immunodetection tools for measuring specific protein levels in biological samples. Hormone-sensitive Lipase is an alias of the human LIPE gene, which encodes the protein, lipase E, hormone sensitive type. Notably, Hormone-sensitive Lipase is known to play a role in cholesterol metabolism and homeostasis and the metabolism of lipids, among other functions. The LIPE protein is 1076 amino acid residues in length and 116.6 kilodaltons in mass. However, as many as 2 protein isoforms have been identified. It is localized to the cell membrane and cytoplasm of the cell. In terms of tissue specificity, it is notably expressed in the testis. This protein is known to be phosphorylated. Other names for this target antigen include AOMS4, FPLD6, and HSL.
The detection range for different Hormone-sensitive Lipase ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 15.625 pg/mL and as high as 90 ng/mL. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
