Description

MVK Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 419 amino acids (1-396) and having a molecular mass of 44.8kDa.The MVK is fused to a 23 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chroma

Protein Background

MVK is a member of the GHMP kinase family. Mevalonate is a vital mediator, and MVK an important early enzyme, in isoprenoid and sterol synthesis. MVK deficiency can result in gene mutation associated with Mevalonic aciduria, an illness which causes psycho

Expression host

Mevalonate Kinase (Mevalonic Aciduria), LH Receptor MRNA-Binding Protein, LRBP, Mevalonate Kinase 1, MK, MVLK, EC 2.7.1.36.

Reagent Appearance

Sterile Filtered clear 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.
