Recombinant Human GSS, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: GSS-2870H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human GSS protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Description: Glutathione synthetase, also known GSS, is the second enzyme in theglutathionebiosynthesis pathway.It catalyses the condensation of gamma-glutamylcysteine and glycine, to form glutathione. Defects in GSS are the cause of glutathione synthetase deficiency (GSS deficiency); also known as 5-oxoprolinuria or pyroglutamic aciduria. It is a severe form characterized by an increased rate of hemolysis and defective function of the central nervous system.
