Formulation |
UPRT protein solution (0. 5mg/ml) containing 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 0.15M NaCl, 20% glycerol and 1mM DTT. |
Purity |
Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
Description |
UPRT Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 332 amino acids (1-309 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 36.2kDa.UPRT is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
Protein Background |
UPRT is a uracil phosphoribosyltransferase, that catalyzes the alteration of uracil and 5-phosphoribosyl-1-R-diphosphate to uridine monophosphate (UMP). This reaction is a significant part of nucleotide metabolism, specifically the pyrimidine salvage pathway. UPRT is restricted to the nucleus and cytoplasm and is a possible target for rational design of drugs to cure cancer and parasitic infections. |
Expression host |
Escherichia Coli. |
Synonyms |
Uracil phosphoribosyltransferase homolog, Uracil phosphoribosyltransferase (FUR1) homolog (S.cerevisiae), FUR1, Uracil Phosphoribosyltransferase, RP11-311P8.3, UPP, UPRT, UPRTase, UMP pyrophosphorylase, uprt. |
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. |
