Recombinant Human MT1A Protein (Met1-Ala61), N-His tagged

• Cat.No.: MT1A-3735H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human MT1A (Met1-Ala61) fused with the N-His tag was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Description: This gene is a member of the metallothionein family of genes. Proteins encoded by this gene family are low in molecular weight, are cysteine-rich, lack aromatic residues, and bind divalent heavy metal ions. The conserved cysteine residues co-ordinate metal ions using mercaptide linkages. These proteins act as anti-oxidants, protect against hydroxyl free radicals, are important in homeostatic control of metal in the cell, and play a role in detoxification of heavy metals. Disruption of two metallothionein genes in mouse resulted in defects in protection against heavy metals, oxidative stress, immune reactions, carcinogens, and displayed obesity.
