Description

MGLL Human Recombinant fused with a 20 amino acid His tag at N-terminus produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 333 amino acids (1-313 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 36.4kDa. The MGLL is purified by proprietary

Protein Background

MGLL is a membrane-associated member of the serine hydrolase superfamily. MGLL is expressed in abundance in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue. MGLL functions jointly with hormone-sensitive lipase (LIPE) to hydrolyze intracellular triglyceride stores in a

Expression host

Escherichia Coli.

Synonyms

Monoglyceride lipase, MGL, HU-K5, Lysophospholipase homolog, Lysophospholipase-like, Monoacylglycerol lipase, MAGL, MGLL, HUK5.

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.
