| Product Name | Cow Glycogen phosphorylase, liver form (PYGL) ELISA Kit |
|---|---|
| Description | PYGL is a homodimeric protein switches from inactive phosphorylase B to active phosphorylase A by phosphorylation of serine residue 15. Activity of this enzyme is further regulated by multiple allosteric effectors and hormonal controls. Humans have three glycogen phosphorylase isozymes that are primarily expressed in liver, brain and muscle, respectively. The liver isozyme serves the glycemic demands of the body in general while the brain and muscle isozymes supply just those tissues. In glycogen storage disease type VI, or Hers disease, mutations in liver glycogen phosphorylase inhibit the conversion of glycogen to glucose and results in moderate hypoglycemia, mild ketosis, growth retardation and hepatomegaly. This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Bovine PYGL. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Bovine PYGL and analogues was observed. |
