Active Recombinant Human PNMT Protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: PNMT-01H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human PNMT Protein (Met1-Leu282) with a C-terminal 6-His tag was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Description: The product of this gene catalyzes the last step of the catecholamine biosynthesis pathway, which methylates norepinephrine to form epinephrine (adrenaline). The enzyme also has beta-carboline 2N-methyltransferase activity. This gene is thought to play a key step in regulating epinephrine production. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.
• Source: E. coli
• Species: Human
• Tag: His
