Product Description
Sorbitol Dehydrogenase Human Recombinant
Overview
SORD, also referred to as sorbitol dehydrogenase, belongs to the zinc-containing alcohol dehydrogenase family. It is widely produced. The lens of the eyeand the kidney are the protein highest production areas. Zinc-dependent interconversion of polyols, like sorbitol and xylitol, are enzymatically catalysed to their respective ketoses by SORD.
Biological Activity
Specific activity > 15unit/mg. Defined by the amount of enzyme that catalyze the reduction 1.0 umole of D-fructose to D-sorbitol per minute at pH 7.5 at 37˚C.
Specifications
| Purity | Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
|---|---|
| Formulation | The SORD solution (0.5mg/ml) contains 10% glycerol, 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.5) and 1mM DTT. |
| 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 | Escherichia Coli. |
