GAPDH Human, Active

Data sheet

Formulation

The GAPDH protein (1 mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer pH-8, 1mM EDTA, 1mM DTT and 20% glycerol.

Purity

Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Description

GAPDH Human Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single polypeptide chain containing 335 amino acids (1-335) and having a molecular mass of 36kDa. The GAPDH is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Protein Background

GAPDH is a catalytic enzyme normally known to play a role in glycolysis. GAPDH exists as a tetramer composed of 36-kDa subunits and has a range of intracellular functions. GAPDH catalyzes the reversible reduction of 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate to glyceraldehy

Expression host

Escherichia Coli.

Synonyms

G3PD, GAPD, MGC88685, GAPDH, Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase.

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.
