Recombinant Human AKR1B1 Protein, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: AKR1B1-409H
• Product Overview: Human AKR1B1 full-length ORF ( AAH00260.1, 1 a.a. - 316 a.a.) recombinant protein with GST-tag at N-terminal.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Wheat Germ
• Tag: GST
• Description: This gene encodes a member of the aldo/keto reductase superfamily, which consists of more than 40 known enzymes and proteins. This member catalyzes the reduction of a number of aldehydes, including the aldehyde form of glucose, and is thereby implicated in the development of diabetic complications by catalyzing the reduction of glucose to sorbitol. Multiple pseudogenes have been identified for this gene. The nomenclature system used by the HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee to define human aldo-keto reductase family members is known to differ from that used by the Mouse Genome Informatics database.
