VNN1/Vanin-1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His)

Vanin-1 (VNN1) is an amide hydrolase that specifically hydrolyzes one carbon amide bond in D-panthionine.The function of this enzyme is essential for recycling pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) and releasing cysteamine.VNN1/Vanin-1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived VNN1/Vanin-1 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

Vanin-1 (VNN1) is an amidohydrolase with the specific function of hydrolyzing one of the carboamide linkages in D-pantetheine. This enzymatic activity plays a crucial role in the recycling of pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), ultimately releasing cysteamine. By facilitating the breakdown of D-pantetheine, VNN1 contributes to the metabolic processes involved in maintaining adequate levels of pantothenic acid, a vital component in various biochemical pathways. This enzymatic action underscores the significance of VNN1 in the regulation of vitamin B5 homeostasis and the release of cysteamine, highlighting its role in cellular metabolism.

Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE

Lyophilized powder

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH₂O.

Stored at -20°C for 2 years. 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.
