CA12 ELISA Kit (Human) (OKBB01320)

Description of target: Carbonic anhydrase 12 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CA12 gene. It is mapped to 15q22.2. Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are a large family of zinc metalloenzymes that catalyze the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide. They participate in a variety of biological processes, including respiration, calcification, acid-base balance, bone resorption, and the formation of aqueous humor, cerebrospinal fluid, saliva, and gastric acid. This gene product is a type I membrane protein that is highly expressed in normal tissues, such as kidney, colon and pancreas, and has been found to be overexpressed in 10% of clear cell renal carcinomas. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene.;Species reactivity: Human;Application: ELISA;Assay info: ;Sensitivity: <10pg/ml
