Background

Dxr/DXP reductoisomerase is a protein that plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of isoprenoids. It catalyzes the NADPH-dependent rearrangement and reduction of 1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate (DXP), a key intermediate in the non-mevalonate pathway, to yield 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate (MEP). This enzymatic conversion represents a pivotal step in the formation of isoprenoid precursors, essential compounds involved in various cellular processes, including the synthesis of essential metabolites and signaling molecules. The activity of Dxr/DXP reductoisomerase underscores its significance in the regulation of isoprenoid biosynthesis and cellular function.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

  • Dilution Calculator

  • Specific Activity Calculator

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
