NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The mitochondrial enzyme encoded by this gene catalyzes synthesis of carbamoyl phosphate from ammonia and bicarbonate. This reaction is the first committed step of the urea cycle, which is important in the removal of excess urea from cells. The encoded protein may also represent a core mitochondrial nucleoid protein. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. The shortest isoform may not be localized to the mitochondrion. Mutations in this gene have been associated with carbamoyl phosphate synthetase deficiency, susceptibility to persistent pulmonary hypertension, and susceptibility to venoocclusive disease after bone marrow transplantation.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
Uniprot Description
CPS1: Involved in the urea cycle of ureotelic animals where the enzyme plays an important role in removing excess ammonia from the cell. Defects in CPS1 are the cause of carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 deficiency (CPS1D). CPS1D is an autosomal recessive disorder of the urea cycle causing hyperammonemia. Clinical features include protein intolerance, intermittent ataxia, seizures, lethargy, developmental delay and mental retardation. Genetic variations in CPS1 influence the availability of precursors for nitric oxide (NO) synthesis and play a role in clinical situations where endogenous NO production is critically important, such as neonatal pulmonary hypertension, increased pulmonary artery pressure following surgical repair of congenital heart defects or hepatovenocclusive disease following bone marrow transplantation. Infants with neonatal pulmonary hypertension homozygous for Thr-1406 have lower L-arginine concentrations than neonates homozygous for Asn-1406. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Human CPS1 cps1 (Catalog #AAA2890297) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2890297 ELISA Kit recognizes Human CPS1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "CPS1/Carbamoyl-Phosphate Synthase [Ammonia], Mitochondrial, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
