Glutathione S-Transferase Recombinant, His Tag ( GST, His )

Data sheet

Formulation

GST is supplied in PBS pH 7.4 & 10% glycerol.

Purity

Greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Description

Recombinant Schistosoma japonicum GST full length protein contains 244 amino acids(1-224 a.a.) expressed in E.coli, having a molecular mass of 28.3kDa. The GST protein is fused to a 20 amino acids His-Tag at N-terminus. The GST protein is purified by prop

Protein Background

Antioxidant enzyme Glutathione S- Transferase (GST) is thought to do the primary cellular defense mechanism against reactive oxygen species. GST reduces lipid hydroperoxides through its Se-independent glutathione peroxidase activity. The enzyme also detox

Expression host

Escherichia Coli.

Synonyms

Glutathione S-Transferase, GST, Glutathione S-transferase class-mu 28 kDa isozyme, GST 28, EC 2.5.1.18, Sj28GST, Sj28 antigen.

Reagent Appearance

Sterile Filtered clear solution.

Stability

Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
