NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a highly conserved cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein (ARPP) family. This protein was identified as an endogenous ligand for the sulfonylurea receptor, ABCC8/SUR1. ABCC8 is the regulatory subunit of the ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel, which is located on the plasma membrane of pancreatic beta cells and plays a key role in the control of insulin release from pancreatic beta cells. This protein is thought to be an endogenous regulator of KATP channels. In vitro studies have demonstrated that this protein modulates insulin secretion through the interaction with KATP channel, and this gene has been proposed as a candidate gene for type 2 diabetes. At least eight alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been observed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
ENSA: a cytoplasmic, highly conserved cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein (ARPP) and regulator of ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels. An endogenous ligand for the sulfonylurea receptor, ABCC8, the regulatory subunit of the KATP channel located on the plasma membrane of pancreatic beta cells. Modulates insulin secretion through the interaction with ABCC8, and may be associated with type 2 diabetes. Eight alternatively spliced isoforms have been observed.

Product Notes
The Human ENSA ensa (Catalog #AAA2890447) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2890447 ELISA Kit recognizes Human ENSA. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "ENSA/Alpha-Endosulfine, 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
