UGT1A1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 1 member A1, which is encoded by the UGT1A1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to be a UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) that catalyzes phase II biotransformation reactions in which lipophilic substrates are conjugated with glucuronic acid to increase the metabolite's water solubility, thereby facilitating excretion into either the urine or bile. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 533 residues, a mass of 59.6 kDa, and is a member of the UDP-glycosyltransferase protein family. It is known to be localized in the ER and cytoplasm. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The UGT1A1 gene has been associated with the disease, Gilbert syndrome. Other alias names for this target include BILIQTL1 and GNT1.
There are UGT1A1 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 31.2 pg/mL and as high as 100 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
