Guinea Pig Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) ELISA Kit | ALT elisa kit
Guinea pig Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) ELISA Kit
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes cytosolic alanine aminotransaminase 1 (ALT1); also known as glutamate-pyruvate transaminase 1. This enzyme catalyzes the reversible transamination between alanine and 2-oxoglutarate to generate pyruvate and glutamate and, therefore, plays a key role in the intermediary metabolism of glucose and amino acids. Serum activity levels of this enzyme are routinely used as a biomarker of liver injury caused by drug toxicity, infection, alcohol, and steatosis. A related gene on chromosome 16 encodes a putative mitochondrial alanine aminotransaminase.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
Uniprot Description
GPT: Catalyzes the reversible transamination between alanine and 2-oxoglutarate to form pyruvate and glutamate. Participates in cellular nitrogen metabolism and also in liver gluconeogenesis starting with precursors transported from skeletal muscles. Belongs to the class-I pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. Alanine aminotransferase subfamily.

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 8q24.3
Cellular Component: cytosol
Molecular Function: alanine transaminase activity; pyridoxal phosphate binding
Biological Process: amino acid biosynthetic process; L-alanine catabolic process

Product Notes
The Guinea Pig ALT gpt (Catalog #AAA269146) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA269146 ELISA Kit recognizes Guinea Pig ALT. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT), 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
