Product Description
Serine Racemase Human Recombinant
Overview
Serine racemase (SRR) is an enzyme which generates D-serine from L-serine. D-serine functions as a neuronal signaling molecule by activating NMDA receptors in the brain. Mammalian SRR is a pyridoxal 5'-phosphate dependent enzyme which catalyzes both the racemization of L-serine to D-serine and also the elimination of water from L-serine, producing pyruvate and ammonia. The SRR enzyme is physiologically stimulated by divalent cations (e.g., magnesium) and is allosterically activated by the magnesium/ATP complex.
Specifications
| Purity | Greater than 85.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
|---|---|
| Formulation | The SRR solution (0.5mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH8.0), 20% glycerol, 0.1M NaCl 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. |
