GPT Rat

Data sheet

Formulation

GPT protein solution (1mg/ml) containing Phosphate Buffered Saline pH 7.4 and 10% glycerol.

Purity

Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Description

GPT Rat Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 519 amino acids (1-496 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 57.5kDa. GPT is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatog

Protein Background

GPT catalyzes the reversible transamination between alanine and 2-oxoglutarate to create pyruvate and glutamate. GPT has a crucial part in the intermediary metabolism of glucose and amino acids. GPT is broadly used as an indicator of liver reliability or

Expression host

E.coli.

Synonyms

Alanine aminotransferase 1 (EC:2.6.1.2), ALT1, Glutamate pyruvate transaminase 1, GPT 1, Glutamic--alanine transaminase 1, Glutamic--pyruvic transaminase 1, Gpt, Aat1, Gpt1.

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.
