NCBI Description
catalyzes the conversion of 5-aminolevulinate to porphobilinogen in heme biosynthesis [RGD, Feb 2006]
Uniprot Description
ALAD: Catalyzes an early step in the biosynthesis of tetrapyrroles. Binds two molecules of 5-aminolevulinate per subunit, each at a distinct site, and catalyzes their condensation to form porphobilinogen. Defects in ALAD are the cause of acute hepatic porphyria (AHEPP). A form of porphyria. Porphyrias are inherited defects in the biosynthesis of heme, resulting in the accumulation and increased excretion of porphyrins or porphyrin precursors. They are classified as erythropoietic or hepatic, depending on whether the enzyme deficiency occurs in red blood cells or in the liver. AHP is characterized by attacks of gastrointestinal disturbances, abdominal colic, paralysis, and peripheral neuropathy. Most attacks are precipitated by drugs, alcohol, caloric deprivation, infections, or endocrine factors. Belongs to the ALADH family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Rat Alad alad (Catalog #AAA289615) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA289615 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat Alad. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase, 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
