Active Recombinant Human CA8 Protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: CA8-397H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human CA8 protein fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Description: CA8 was initially named CA-related protein because of sequence similarity to other known carbonic anhydrase genes. However, this protein lacks carbonic anhydrase activity (i.e., the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide). It continues to carry a carbonic anhydrase designation based on clear sequence identity to other members of the carbonic anhydrase gene family. Defects in CA8 are the cause of cerebellar ataxia mental retardation and dysequilibrium syndrome type 3 (CMARQ3).
• Form: Liquid. 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH8.0) containing 20% glycerol, 1mM DTT
• Bio-activity: Specific activity is >450 pmol/min/ug, and is defined as the amount of enzyme that hydrolyze 1.0 pmole of 4-nitrophenyl acetate to 4-nitrophenol per minute at pH 7.5 at 37C.
• Molecular Mass: 35.5 kDa (314aa), confirmed by MALDI-TOF(Molecular weight on SDS-PAGE will appear higher)
