Human Hexokinase 1 (HK1) ELISA Kit

Quantitative measurement of human hexokinase 1 supports research into glycolytic flux, cancer cell metabolism, and glucose handling in metabolically active tissues such as brain and skeletal muscle. This Assay Genie kit ships in a 96-assay configuration with a colorimetric readout that runs on standard microplate absorbance readers.

The kit accommodates a range of specimen types commonly used in metabolic and cell biology research, giving labs flexibility for cell-based, tissue-derived, and liquid-sample study designs. It fits into standard ELISA workflows and supports studies of HK1 expression in disease models, glycolysis regulation, and metabolic reprogramming, with reagents supplied ready to run.

Hexokinase 1 catalyzes the first committed step of glycolysis — the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate — and is anchored to the outer mitochondrial membrane in many cell types. Altered HK1 expression has been documented in hemolytic anemia, certain cancers, and some neurological conditions, making reliable quantitation valuable across metabolic, oncology, and neuroscience research programs. The kit is intended for research use only in laboratory settings.
