Product Description
Alpha-Galactosidase Human Recombinant
Overview
Alpha-galactosidase A (GLA) is a homodimeric glycoprotein which hydrolyses the terminal alpha-galactosyl moieties from glycolipids and glycoproteins. GLA catalyzes the hydrolysis of melibiose into galactose and glucose. Various mutations in the GLA gene affect the synthesis, processing, and stability of this enzyme, which causes Fabry disease (a rare lysosomal storage disorder which results from a failure to catabolize alpha-D-galactosyl glycolipid moieties).
Specifications
| Purity | Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
|---|---|
| Formulation | GLA protein solution (0.5mg/ml) contains Phosphate Buffered Saline (pH 7.4) and 10% glycerol. |
| Storage | 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. |
| Expression System | Sf9, Baculovirus cells. |
