Product Description
Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus Reverse Trancscriptase Recombinant
Overview
ME2 catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of malate to pyruvate, malat + NAD(P)+? pyruvate + CO2 + NAD(P)H+, and is found both in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Three different isoforms of ME are known to be in mammalian tissues: a strictly cytosolic NADP+-dependent enzyme, an NADP+-dependent mitochondriail isoform, and a mitochondrial isoenzyme that is able to use both NAD+ and NADP+ but is more effective with NAD+. The mammalian isoforms size is about 62-64 kDa. A native size of 240,000 Da proposes a tetrameric structure for the active enzyme. Mitochondrial NAD+-dependent ME 2 activity is seen in tissues that experience many cell divisions, like spleen, thymus, and the basal cells of the small intestinal mucosa. ME2 is also expressed all through the rapid cleavage stages of early Xenopus development. Activity for this isoform is low or nonexistent in brain, muscle, and normal and regenerating liver tissue from rat but was observed in rat adrenal cortex, pigeon and human skeletal muscle, and in heart muscle of some species. In addition, it is expressed in mitochondria of all tumor cells inspected to detain ascites tumors, hepatoma cells, and a variety of other tumors and transformed cell lines.
Specifications
| Purity | Greater than 95.0% as determined by(a) Analysis by HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
|---|---|
| Formulation | The protein was Lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in 20mM Tris, 150mM NaCl, 1mM b-mercaptoethanol, 1mM EDTA, pH8.0. |
| Storage | Lyophilized ME2 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution ME2 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Expression System | Escherichia Coli. |
