Short Description: |
This HMGCS Sandwich ELISA Kit is an in-vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the measurement of samples in human cell culture supernatant, serum and plasma (EDTA, citrate, heparin). |
Storage Instruction: |
Store the unopened kit in the fridge at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. Once opened store individual kit contents according to components table provided with the kit. |
Assay Time: |
4.5 hrs |
Gene Symbol: |
HMGCS2 |
Gene ID: |
3158 |
Uniprot ID: |
HMCS2_HUMAN |
Sample Type: |
tissue homogenates or other biological fluids. |
Tissue Specificity | Expression in liver is 200-fold higher than in any other tissue. Low expression in colon, kidney, testis, and pancreas. Very low expression in heart and skeletal muscle. Not detected in brain. Isoform 3: Highest expression detected in heart and skeletal muscle. |
Post Translational Modifications | Succinylated. Desuccinylated by SIRT5. Succinylation, at least at Lys-83 and Lys-310, inhibits the enzymatic activity. |
Function | Catalyzes the first irreversible step in ketogenesis, condensing acetyl-CoA to acetoacetyl-CoA to form HMG-CoA, which is converted by HMG-CoA reductase (HMGCR) into mevalonate. |
