TKT Protein, Human (His)

Cat. No.: HY-P701863
COA Handling Instructions

TKT proteins are essential for catalyzing the transfer of a two-carbon ketol group from a ketose donor to an aldose acceptor. This process is facilitated by the formation of a covalent intermediate with the cofactor thiamine pyrophosphate. TKT Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived TKT protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag. The total length of TKT Protein, Human (His) is 622 a.a., .

Background

TKT protein is essential for catalyzing the transfer of a two-carbon ketol group from a ketose donor to an aldose acceptor. This process is facilitated by the formation of a covalent intermediate with the cofactor thiamine pyrophosphate. The enzymatic activity of TKT protein plays a critical role in various metabolic pathways, including the pentose phosphate pathway and the Calvin cycle. The transfer of the ketol group is a key step in these pathways, enabling the conversion of sugars and the generation of important intermediates for energy production and biosynthesis. TKT protein's function is crucial for maintaining metabolic flux and contributing to the overall balance of carbohydrate metabolism in the cell.

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
