Recombinant Mouse Asmt, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: Asmt-3062M
• Product Overview: Acetylserotonin O-methyltransferase (Asmt)

Specification

• Description: This gene belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily, and is located in the pseudoautosomal region (PAR) of the X and Y chromosomes. The encoded enzyme catalyzes the final reaction in the synthesis of melatonin, and is abundant in the pineal gland. Two amino acid substitutions (R78G and R242C) inactivate this gene product in some mouse strains including the strain of the reference genome, C57BL/6J, whereas a functional protein is produced in other strains.
• Source: E. Coli or Yeast
• Species: Mouse
• Tag: His
• Form: This item requires custom production and lead time is between 5-9 weeks. We can custom produce according to your specifications.
• Protein length: 387
• Purity: >90%
• Notes: Small volumes of Asmt recombinant protein may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice.
