Shipped with Ice Packs
In Stock

Description

Production and Purification

The enzyme is expressed in heterologous systems such as E. coli, yeast, or mammalian cells . Mammalian cell systems (e.g., HEK293) are preferred for proper post-translational modifications .

Key Production Parameters:

  • Expression Vector: Customized for high-yield soluble protein .

  • Purification: Affinity chromatography (e.g., Ni-NTA for His-tagged variants) .

  • Buffer: Tris-based with 50% glycerol to enhance stability .

Reconstitution Guidelines:

  • Lyophilized protein is reconstituted in sterile deionized water (0.1–1.0 mg/mL) .

  • Glycerol (5–50%) is added for long-term storage .

Research Applications

  • Metabolic Pathway Analysis: Used to study histidine catabolism in Salmonella arizonae .

  • Antimicrobial Target Screening: Explored for inhibiting bacterial growth in zoonotic infections .

  • Enzyme Kinetics: Assayed for substrate specificity and inhibition kinetics .

Limitations and Future Directions

  • Partial Sequence: Lacks full-length enzymatic activity, limiting structural studies .

  • Thermal Sensitivity: Requires strict -80°C storage to prevent aggregation .

  • Research Gaps: No direct links to virulence in Salmonella arizonae infections have been established .

Product Specs

Form
Lyophilized powder. We will ship the available format, but please specify any format requirements when ordering.
Lead Time
Delivery times vary. Contact your local distributor for details. Proteins are shipped with blue ice packs. Request dry ice in advance (extra fees apply).
Notes
Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Working aliquots are stable at 4°C for up to one week.
Reconstitution
Briefly centrifuge the vial before opening. Reconstitute in sterile deionized water to 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Add 5-50% glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Default glycerol concentration is 50%.
Shelf Life
Shelf life depends on storage conditions, buffer, temperature, and protein stability. Liquid form: 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. Lyophilized form: 12 months at -20°C/-80°C.
Storage Condition
Store at -20°C/-80°C upon receipt. Aliquot for multiple uses. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Tag Info
Tag type is determined during manufacturing. Specify your preferred tag type, and we will prioritize its development.
