Guinea pig Aflatoxin B1 aldehyde reductase member 4 (AKR7L) ELISA Kit
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene is one of three aldo-keto reductase genes that are present in a cluster on the p arm of chromosome 1. The encoded proteins are involved in the reduction of the dialdehyde protein-binding form of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) to the non-binding AFB1 dialcohol. It has been speculated that this family member encodes a selenoprotein, which includes a selenocysteine (Sec) residue in lieu of a UGA translational termination codon. However, there is no evidence that such a protein is produced in vivo. The alternative interpretation is that this family member is a duplicated pseudogene, and it is therefore represented as such in this Gene record. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011]
Uniprot Description

Product Notes
The Guinea Pig AKR7L akr7l (Catalog #AAA7249806) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA7249806 ELISA Kit recognizes Guinea Pig AKR7L. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Aflatoxin B1 aldehyde reductase member 4 (AKR7L), 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
