Product Description
Acyl-CoA Thioesterase 8 Human Recombinant
Overview
Acyl-CoA Thioesterase 8 (ACOT8) is a group of enzymes which catalyze the hydrolysis of acyl-CoAs to the free fatty acid and coenzyme A (CoASH), granting the potential to regulate intracellular levels of acyl-CoAs, free fatty acids and CoASH. ACOT8 mediate Nef-induced down-regulation of CD4. ACOT8 contends with BAAT (Bile acid CoA: amino acid N-acyltransferase) for bile acid-CoA substrate (such as chenodeoxycholoyl-CoA). ACOT8 prefers medium-length fatty acyl-CoAs.
Specifications
| Purity | Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
|---|---|
| Formulation | The ACOT8 solution (0.5mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 0.2M NaCl, 40% glycerol and 2mM DTT. |
