Description
CytoFinal™ Mouse Tissue/Cell Specific Alanine Aminotransferase 1 / ALT (GPT) ELISA Kit provides a sensitive immunoassay for quantitative detection of ALT1 protein in mouse-derived biological samples. Utilizing a sandwich ELISA format with highly specific antibodies, the kit enables reliable measurement of ALT concentrations in tissue lysates and cultured cells, supporting mechanistic studies of liver injury and metabolic regulation in murine models.
Features
Mouse-specific antibody pair ensures selective recognition of ALT1 with minimal cross-reactivity against related aminotransferase enzymes in complex lysates. Sensitive sandwich ELISA detection system allows reliable quantification of low-level ALT protein expression in mouse tissue and cellular samples. Standard 96-well microplate assay format enables efficient parallel processing of multiple samples using widely available ELISA readers. Carefully optimized reagents and calibration standards deliver reproducible quantitative measurements and consistent assay performance across independent experimental runs.

Background
Alanine aminotransferase 1 (ALT1) is a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the reversible transfer of an amino group from alanine to α-ketoglutarate. This reaction produces pyruvate and glutamate, linking amino acid metabolism with cellular energy pathways. In mice, changes in ALT levels are commonly used as indicators of hepatocellular injury and metabolic imbalance.
Pathways
ALT participates in the alanine cycle, which connects peripheral amino acid metabolism with hepatic glucose production. The resulting pyruvate enters gluconeogenesis or the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, integrating nitrogen metabolism with cellular energy generation.
