RBKS Protein, Human (His)

Cat. No.: HY-P76564
COA Handling Instructions

RBKS protein plays a central role in cellular metabolism by catalyzing the phosphorylation of ribose at the O-5 site, a process that is dependent on ATP and magnesium. This enzymatic activity leads to the formation of D-ribose-5-phosphate, a versatile precursor that can be used in various biosynthetic pathways. RBKS Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived RBKS protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag. The total length of RBKS Protein, Human (His) is 322 a.a., with molecular weight of ~37 kDa.

Description

RBKS protein plays a central role in cellular metabolism by catalyzing the phosphorylation of ribose at the O-5 site, a process that is dependent on ATP and magnesium. This enzymatic activity leads to the formation of D-ribose-5-phosphate, a versatile precursor that can be used in various biosynthetic pathways.

Background

The RBKS protein plays a vital role in cellular metabolism by catalyzing the phosphorylation of ribose at O-5, a reaction that requires ATP and magnesium. This enzymatic activity leads to the formation of D-ribose-5-phosphate, a crucial intermediate that can be utilized for the synthesis of nucleotides, including purines and pyrimidines, as well as histidine and tryptophan. Additionally, D-ribose-5-phosphate serves as a key component in the pentose phosphate pathway, contributing to the generation of reducing equivalents and nucleotide precursors. The versatility of RBKS in directing ribose-5-phosphate towards various biosynthetic pathways underscores its importance in coordinating cellular processes essential for nucleotide and energy metabolism.

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
