| Formulation |
BTD protein solution (0.25mg/ml) containing Phosphate Buffered Saline (pH 7.4) and 10% glycerol. |
| Purity |
Greater than 85% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Description |
BTD Human Recombinant produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 510 amino acids (44-545a.a) and having a molecular mass of 57.8kDa. (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 50-70kDa).BTD is fused to an 8 amino acid His-tag at C-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background |
Biotinidase also known BTD, belongs to the nitrilase superfamily, which contains 12 families of nitrilases, amidases, carbamylases, and N-acyltrasferases. BTD catalyzes the hydrolysis of biocytin, the product of biotin-dependent carboxylase degradation, to biotin and lysine. BTD has a vital regulatory part in chromatin/DNA function. Mutations in BTD protein lead to Biotinidase deficiency. |
| Expression host |
Sf9, Baculovirus cells. |
| Synonyms |
Biotinidase, EC 3.5.1.12, Biotinase, EC 3.5.1. |
| 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. |
