Analysis of ENO1 Gene (Mutation) by RT-qPCR (CAT#: STEM-MT-1318-LGZ)

Introduction

Official Full Name: enolase 1<br />Also known as: NNE; PPH; MPB1; ENO1L1; ENO1-IT1; HEL-S-17<br />This gene encodes alpha-enolase, one of three enolase isoenzymes found in mammals. Each isoenzyme is a homodimer composed of 2 alpha, 2 gamma, or 2 beta subunits, and functions as a glycolytic enzyme. Alpha-enolase in addition, functions as a structural lens protein (tau-crystallin) in the monomeric form. Alternative splicing of this gene results in a shorter isoform that has been shown to bind to the c-myc promoter and function as a tumor suppressor. Several pseudogenes have been identified, including one on the long arm of chromosome 1. Alpha-enolase has also been identified as an autoantigen in Hashimoto encephalopathy.
