Human fFDFT1 (Farnesyl Diphosphate Farnesyltransferase 1) ELISA Kit

Human fFDFT1 (Farnesyl Diphosphate Farnesyltransferase 1) ELISA Kit is a high quality kit for research use only from Assay Genie. The Human fFDFT1 (Farnesyl Diphosphate Farnesyltransferase 1) ELISA Kit comes in a 96 Assays format and reacts against Human samples. We ship this kit on Gel Pack and kits should be stored at 2-8°C Protein Function: Catalyzes the condensation of 2 farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) moieties to form squalene. Proceeds in two distinct steps. In the first half-reaction, two molecules of FPP react to form the stable presqualene diphosphate intermediate (PSQPP), with concomitant release of a proton and a molecule of inorganic diphosphate. In the second half-reaction, PSQPP undergoes heterolysis, isomerization, and reduction with NADPH or NADH to form squalene. It is the first committed enzyme of the sterol biosynthesis pathway [The Uniprot Consortium]
