Biological Activity

Description

MDH1 Protein, an enzyme, is involved in the citric acid cycle and the conversion of malate to oxaloacetate.Dysregulation of MDH1 Protein has been associated with metabolic disorders and cancer.Targeting MDH1 Protein may provide potential therapeutic interventions by modulating energy metabolism, inhibiting tumor growth, and potentially treating these conditions.MDH1 Protein, Rat (His) is the recombinant rat-derived MDH1 protein, expressed by E.coli , with C-His labeled tag.

Background

The MDH1 protein, an important enzyme, is responsible for catalyzing the reduction of aromatic alpha-keto acids when NADH is present. It serves critical functions in both the malate-aspartate shuttle and the tricarboxylic acid cycle, which are crucial for providing mitochondrial NADH supply needed for oxidative phosphorylation. Additionally, MDH1 catalyzes the reduction of 2-oxoglutarate to 2-hydroxyglutarate, a process that can result in increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Verified Bioactivity

Specific activity is 2524.23 units/mg, and is defined as the amount of enzyme that cleaves 1.0 μmole of oxalacetate and beta-NADH to L-malate and beta-NAD per minute at pH 8.0 at 37ºC.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 20 mM Tris-HCl, 300 mM NaCl, pH 7.4, 10% glycerol.
Note: For SPR assay, please replace the buffer. Primary amine components (e.g., Tris, imidazole) can affect protein-coupled chips.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Shipping
