gucD Protein, Bacillus subtilis

Cat. No.: HY-P701905
Handling Instructions

The gucD protein is an important enzyme that catalyzes the irreversible ammonia removal of L-kynurenine to generate kynurenic acid (KA). This process is part of the tryptophan catabolic pathway and produces KA, known for its broad-spectrum antagonistic activity at excitatory amino acid receptors. gucD Protein, Bacillus subtilis is the recombinant gucD protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free. The total length of gucD Protein, Bacillus subtilis is 487 a.a., .

Background

KYAT1 protein orchestrates the irreversible transamination of the L-tryptophan metabolite L-kynurenine, culminating in the formation of kynurenic acid (KA). This process holds significance within the tryptophan catabolic pathway and yields KA, known for its broad-spectrum antagonistic activity against the three ionotropic excitatory amino acid receptors, among others. Beyond its role in tryptophan metabolism, KYAT1 is involved in the transformation of cysteine conjugates from specific halogenated alkenes and alkanes into reactive metabolites. Furthermore, KYAT1 catalyzes the beta-elimination of S-conjugates and Se-conjugates of L-(seleno)cysteine, leading to the cleavage of the C-S or C-Se bond. The diverse enzymatic activities of KYAT1 underscore its involvement in key metabolic pathways and xenobiotic processing.

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)
× = ×
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
