Gamma-GCS Protein, E.coli (His-SUMO)

Cat. No.: HY-P71511
Handling Instructions

Gamma-GCS protein is a key enzyme in sulfur metabolism and initiates glutathione synthesis by catalyzing the incorporation of L-cysteine and L-glutamic acid. This important molecule critical for cellular antioxidant defense is synthesized through a critical 1/2 step facilitated by γ-GCS. Gamma-GCS Protein, E.coli (His-SUMO) is the recombinant E. coli-derived Gamma-GCS protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His, N-SUMO labeled tag. The total length of Gamma-GCS Protein, E.coli (His-SUMO) is 518 a.a., with molecular weight of ~74.3 kDa.

Description

This important molecule critical for cellular antioxidant defense is synthesized through a critical 1/2 step facilitated by γ-GCS. Gamma-GCS Protein, E.coli (His-SUMO) is the recombinant E. coli-derived Gamma-GCS protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His, N-SUMO labeled tag.

Background

Gamma-GCS protein, a key enzyme in sulfur metabolism and glutathione biosynthesis, facilitates the critical step 1/2 of glutathione formation from L-cysteine and L-glutamate. As part of this enzymatic process, gamma-GCS catalyzes the incorporation of L-cysteine and L-glutamate, initiating the synthesis of glutathione. This molecule, essential for cellular antioxidant defense and detoxification, plays a crucial role in maintaining redox homeostasis within the cell. By orchestrating the initial steps of glutathione biosynthesis, gamma-GCS contributes to the cellular mechanisms that protect against oxidative stress and support overall cellular health.

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.

  • Reconstitution Calculator

  • 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)
× = ×
C1   V1   C2   V2

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
