Human Procollagen Lysine-2-Oxoglutarate-5-Dioxygenase 3 (PLOD3) ELISA Kit

The Human PLOD3 ELISA Kit from Assay Genie enables quantitative measurement of Procollagen Lysine-2-Oxoglutarate-5-Dioxygenase 3, also referred to as Lysyl Hydroxylase 3 (LH3), a multifunctional enzyme involved in collagen biosynthesis. Beyond hydroxylating lysine residues on procollagen chains, PLOD3 carries intrinsic glycosyltransferase activity, attaching glucose and galactose units to hydroxylysine to generate the carbohydrate side chains of mature collagen. The kit uses a human-specific capture antibody pair and is validated for use with tissue homogenates and biological fluids, making it suited to research in fibrosis, connective tissue disorders, and extracellular matrix biology. Reagents should be stored refrigerated to maintain antibody binding activity, and the microplate format delivers 96 assays per kit. This supports investigation into collagen cross-linking, wound healing, and diseases where PLOD3 expression or glycosylation is altered.
