BHMT2 Human

Data sheet

Formulation

BHMT2 protein solution (0.5mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 0.4M Urea and 10% glycerol.

Purity

Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Description

BHMT2 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 386 amino acids (1-363 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 42.7kDa. BHMT2 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus.

Protein Background

Betaine-Homocysteine Methyltransferase 2 (BHMT2) is involved in the regulation of homocysteine metabolism. Homocysteine is a sulfur-containing amino acid which has a key role in methylation reactions. Transfer of the methyl group from betaine to homocyste

Expression host

Escherichia Coli.

Synonyms

BHMT2, Betaine--Homocysteine S-Methyltransferase 2, SMM-Hcy Methyltransferase, Betaine-Homocysteine Methyltransferase 2, S-Methylmethionine--Homocysteine S-Methyltransferase BHMT2, EC 2.1.1.10, EC 2.1.1.5.

Reagent Appearance

Sterile Filtered colorless 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.
