Human alkylglycerone phosphate synthase ELISA Kit | AGPS elisa kit
Human Alkyldihydroxyacetonephosphate synthase, peroxisomal, AGPS ELISA Kit
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene is a member of the FAD-binding oxidoreductase/transferase type 4 family. It encodes a protein that catalyzes the second step of ether lipid biosynthesis in which acyl-dihydroxyacetonephosphate (DHAP) is converted to alkyl-DHAP by the addition of a long chain alcohol and the removal of a long-chain acid anion. The protein is localized to the inner aspect of the peroxisomal membrane and requires FAD as a cofactor. Mutations in this gene have been associated with rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata, type 3 and Zellweger syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
AGPS: Defects in AGPS are the cause of rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata type 3 (RCDP3). RCDP3 is characterized by rhizomelic shortening of femur and humerus, vertebral disorders, cataract, cutaneous lesions and severe mental retardation. Belongs to the FAD-binding oxidoreductase/transferase type 4 family.

Product Notes
The Human AGPS agps (Catalog #AAA9342119) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9342119 ELISA Kit recognizes Human AGPS. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "alkylglycerone phosphate synthase, 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
