Active Recombinant Human PGK2 Protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: PGK2-3982H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human PGK2 protein (1-417aa), fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography.

Specification

• Description: This gene is intronless, arose via retrotransposition of the phosphoglycerate kinase 1 gene, and is expressed specifically in the testis. Initially assumed to be a pseudogene, the encoded protein is actually a functional phosphoglycerate kinase that catalyzes the reversible conversion of 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate to 3-phosphoglycerate, during the Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway of glycolysis, in the later stages of spermatogenesis.
• Source: E. coli
