Active Recombinant Human GPI Protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: GPI-387H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human GPI, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.

Specification

• Description: Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, also known as GPI, belongs to the GPI family whose members encode multifunctional phosphoglucose isomerase proteins involved in energy pathways. The protein encoded by this gene is a dimeric enzyme that catalyzes the reversible isomerization of glucose-6-phosphate and fructose-6-phosphate. Mammalian GPI can function as a tumor-secreted cytokine and an angiogenic factor (AMF) that stimulates endothelial cell motility. GPI is also a neurotrophic factor (Neuroleukin) for spinal and sensory neurons.
• Source: E.coli
• Species: Human
• Tag: His
• Form: Liquid. In 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH8.0) containing 1mM DTT, 10% glycerol.
• Bio-activity: Specific activity is >400 units/mg obtained by measuring the increase of NADPH in absorbance at 340 nm resulting from the reduction of NADP. One unit will convert 1.0 umole of D-Fructose 6-phosphate to D-glucose 6-phosphate per minute at pH 7.4 at 37C.
• Molecular Mass: 65.3kDa (578aa), confirmed by MALDI-TOF
