Recombinant Human Aminolevulinate, Delta-, Synthase 2, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: ALAS2-419H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human ALAS (aminolevulinate, delta-, synthase 2) (a.a. 136-553) with N-terminal His tag, MW = 46 kDa, expressed in anE.Coliexpression system.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Protein Length: 136-553 a.a.
• Description: Delta-aminolevulinate synthase 2 also known as ALAS2 is a protein which in humans is encoded by the ALAS2 gene. ALAS2 is an aminolevulinic acid synthase.The product of this gene specifies an erythroid-specific mitochondrially located enzyme. The encoded protein catalyzes the first step in the heme biosynthetic pathway. Defects in this gene cause X-linked pyridoxine-responsive sideroblastic anemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
• Formulated In: 25 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 100 mM NaCl, 0.05% Tween-20, 20% glycerol, 3 mM DTT, 20 μM pyridoxal 5' phosphate monohydrate.
• Purity: 90%.
• Application: Useful for the study of enzyme kinetics, screening inhibitors, and selectivity profiling.
• Stability: >6 months at -80°C.
