Formulation |
TYRP1 protein solution (0.25mg/ml) containing Phosphate Buffered Saline (pH 7.4) and 10% glycerol. |
Purity |
Greater than 85.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
Description |
TYRP1 Human Recombinant produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 462 amino acids (25-477a.a) and having a molecular mass of 52.5kDa. (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 50-70kDa).TYRP1 is fused to a 6 amino acid His-tag at C-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
Protein Background |
TYRP1, also known as 5, 6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid oxidase, is a melanosomal enzyme which is a member of the tyrosinase family and takes a significant part in the melanin biosynthetic pathway. TYRP1 is a melanocyte-specific gene which is involved in eumelanin synthesis. Furthermore, TYRP1 is implicated in the oxidation of 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid-DHICA into indole-5,6-quinone-2-carboxylic acid. TYRP1 is regulated by the microphthalmia-associated transcription factor-MITF. |
