Nucleoside phosphorylase/PNP Protein, Human (His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

Nucleoside phosphorylase/PNP proteins play a vital role in cellular processes by catalyzing the phosphate breakdown of β-(deoxy)ribonucleosides, preferably 6-oxopurine nucleosides, such as inosine and guanosine. This enzymatic activity results in the formation of free purine bases and pentose 1-phosphate, highlighting the importance of this protein in regulating nucleoside degradation. Nucleoside phosphorylase/PNP Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived Nucleoside phosphorylase/PNP protein, expressed by E. coli , with C-10*His labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

Nucleoside phosphorylase/PNP proteins play a vital role in cellular processes by catalyzing the phosphate breakdown of β-(deoxy)ribonucleosides, preferably 6-oxopurine nucleosides, such as inosine and guanosine. This enzymatic activity results in the formation of free purine bases and pentose 1-phosphate, highlighting the importance of this protein in regulating nucleoside degradation. Nucleoside phosphorylase/PNP Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived Nucleoside phosphorylase/PNP protein, expressed by E. coli , with C-10*His labeled tag.

Background

The Nucleoside phosphorylase/PNP protein assumes a crucial role in cellular processes by catalyzing the phosphorolytic breakdown of N-glycosidic bonds in beta-(deoxy)ribonucleoside molecules. This enzymatic activity results in the formation of the corresponding free purine bases and pentose-1-phosphate, as documented in relevant literature. Notably, the protein exhibits a preference for 6-oxopurine nucleosides, such as inosine and guanosine. The substrate specificity of Nucleoside phosphorylase/PNP underscores its significance in the regulated degradation of nucleosides, providing insights into its role in maintaining cellular purine homeostasis and contributing to the overall dynamics of nucleotide metabolism.

Verified Bioactivity

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

1.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 50 mM MES, 50 mM Arg, 5% trehalose, 5% mannitol, 0.01% Tween 80.
2.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 50 mM Tris-HCl, 300 mM NaCl, 200 mM arginine, pH 8.0.
Please refer to the lot-specific COA for specific buffer information.
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.
