This enzymatic process represents a key step in the tyrosine metabolic pathway and contributes to the breakdown of this amino acid. HPD/HPPDase Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived HPD/HPPDase protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag.

Background

HPD, also known as 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase or HPPDase, is a crucial enzyme in tyrosine catabolism. It plays a pivotal role in the conversion of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid to homogentisic acid, representing a key step in the degradation pathway of tyrosine. Through its catalytic activity, HPD facilitates the transformation of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid into homogentisic acid, contributing to the breakdown of tyrosine and the subsequent metabolism of aromatic amino acids. This enzymatic process is essential for maintaining the balance of tyrosine-derived metabolites and is integral to various physiological processes within the cell (adapted from the provided passage).

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
