Recombinant Mouse Bco1 Protein, Myc/DDK-tagged

• Cat.No.: Bco1-1852M
• Product Overview: Purified recombinant protein of mouse full-length beta-carotene oxygenase 1 (Bco1), with C-terminal MYC/DDK tag, expressed in HEK293T cells.

Specification

• Description: Vitamin A metabolism is important for vital processes such as vision, embryonic development, cell differentiation, and membrane and skin protection. The protein encoded by this gene is a key enzyme in beta-carotene metabolism to vitamin A. It catalyzes the oxidative cleavage of beta,beta-carotene into two retinal molecules. Two alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
