Human Lysophosphatidylcholine Acyltransferase 1 (LPCAT1) ELISA Kit

LPCAT1 (Lysophosphatidylcholine Acyltransferase 1) is a key enzyme in the Lands cycle of phospholipid remodeling, where it transfers acyl groups onto lysophosphatidylcholine to produce phosphatidylcholine species. Assay Genie's quantitative immunoassay for this target enables researchers to measure LPCAT1 protein levels in human research specimens including serum-type, plasma-type, and tissue homogenate samples, with a colorimetric endpoint readable on standard plate readers. The kit is configured for 96 individual determinations in a microplate layout and includes a pre-coated plate, calibrated reference standards, a biotinylated detection antibody, streptavidin-HRP conjugate, wash buffer, substrate, and stop solution sufficient to run a complete plate. Reagents are intended for research use only and are not validated for diagnostic procedures. Typical applications include lipid metabolism studies, investigation of pulmonary surfactant biosynthesis in alveolar type II cells, and broader membrane biology research where LPCAT1 activity has been linked to inflammatory and respiratory phenotypes.
