Bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the last two steps of purine biosynthesis. Acts as a transformylase that incorporates a formyl group to the AMP analog AICAR (5-amino-1- (5-phospho-beta-D-ribosyl) imidazole-4-carboxamide) to produce the intermediate formyl-AICAR (FAICAR) . Can use both 10-formyldihydrofolate and 10-formyltetrahydrofolate as the formyl donor in this reaction. Also catalyzes the cyclization of FAICAR to IMP. Promotes insulin receptor/INSR autophosphorylation and is involved in INSR internalization.

If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.

We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.

The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20°C/-80°C.
