Data sheet

Formulation

The DERA solution (1mg/ml) 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 10% glycerol and 2mM DTT.

Purity

Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Description

DERA produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 279 amino acids (1-259 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 29.9kDa.DERA is fused to a 20 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniq

Protein Background

Deoxyribose-phosphate aldolase (DERA) is a member of the deoC/fbaB aldolase protein family involved in the carbohydrate degradation pathway. DERA catalyzes the conversion of 2-deoxy-D-ribose 5-phosphate to D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and an acetyldehyde.

Expression host

Escherichia Coli.

Synonyms

Putative deoxyribose-phosphate aldolase, DERA, 2-deoxy-D-ribose 5-phosphate aldolase, Phosphodeoxyriboaldolase, Deoxyriboaldolase, DERA, CGI-26.

Reagent Appearance

Sterile Filtered colorless solution.

Stability

DERA should be stored desiccated below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
