Lanosterol synthase/LSS Protein, Human (P.pastoris, His)

Cat. No.: HY-P72309
COA Handling Instructions

LSS protein, a pivotal enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis, catalyzes the cyclization of (S)-2,3 oxidosqualene into lanosterol, a crucial step in sterol nucleus formation. Beyond cholesterol biosynthesis, LSS may regulate lens protein aggregation, maintaining lens transparency. LSS's enzymatic action impacts fundamental and specialized cellular processes, underscoring its significance in diverse physiological contexts. Lanosterol synthase/LSS Protein, Human (P.pastoris, His) is the recombinant human-derived Lanosterol synthase/LSS protein, expressed by P. pastoris , with N-His labeled tag. The total length of Lanosterol synthase/LSS Protein, Human (P.pastoris, His) is 731 a.a., with molecular weight of ~86.0 kDa.

Beyond cholesterol biosynthesis, LSS may regulate lens protein aggregation, maintaining lens transparency. LSS's enzymatic action impacts fundamental and specialized cellular processes, underscoring its significance in diverse physiological contexts.

Background

Lanosterol synthase (LSS) emerges as a pivotal enzyme in the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway, orchestrating the cyclization of (S)-2,3 oxidosqualene into lanosterol. This catalytic activity holds a key role in the formation of the sterol nucleus, a critical step in cholesterol production. Beyond its role in cholesterol biosynthesis, LSS has been implicated in potential regulatory functions related to lens protein aggregation, suggesting a role in maintaining lens transparency. The enzymatic action of LSS not only contributes to fundamental cellular processes but may also extend its impact to specialized functions, highlighting its significance in cellular and physiological contexts.

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.

  • 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
