Human Mevalonate Decarboxylase (MVD) ELISA Kit

This antibody-pair ELISA from Assay Genie quantitatively measures human Mevalonate Decarboxylase (MVD), the terminal enzyme of the mevalonate pathway that converts mevalonate-5-diphosphate into isopentenyl diphosphate, the universal precursor for cholesterol, isoprenoid, and dolichol biosynthesis. The 96-assay kit is configured for in vitro research use, supporting studies of sterol and lipid metabolism, the mevalonate-to-cholesterol axis in cardiovascular and metabolic disease, and investigation of MVD loss-of-function variants linked to disseminated superficial actinic porokeratosis and porokeratosis ptychotropica. Research teams working on mevalonate kinase deficiency, hyper-IgD syndrome, and tumor cell metabolism also rely on this kit to track enzyme-level changes alongside pathway intermediates. A colorimetric readout and a streamlined protocol make the assay adaptable to standard microplate readers, with results quantified against the standard curve generated from the calibrators supplied with each run.
