Recombinant Human HEXA, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: HEXA-93H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human HEXA, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in insect cell and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.

Specification

• Description: HEXA, also known as beta-hexosaminidase subunit alpha preproprotein, is an enzyme, located on the 15th chromosome. Hexosaminidase A and the cofactor GM2 activator protein catalyze the degradation of the GM2 gangliosides and other molecules containing terminal N-acetyl hexosamines. Hexosaminidase A is a heterodimer composed of an alpha subunit and a beta subunit.
