Glyoxalase II/HAGH Protein, Human, Recombinant (His Tag)

HAGH (Hydroxyacylglutathione Hydrolase) is a Protein Coding gene. 3 alternative splicing and alternative initiation of human isoforms have been reported. The enzyme encoded by this gene is classified as a thioesterase and is responsible for the hydrolysis of S-lactoyl-glutathione to reduced glutathione and D-lactate. HAGH belongs to the Metallo-beta-lactamase superfamily. HAGH is widely expressed in the kidney, liver, and other tissues. Diseases associated with HAGH include Hydroxyacyl Glutathione Hydrolase Deficiency. Among its related pathways are Pyruvate metabolism and Citric Acid (TCA) cycle and Metabolism. The human and rodent forms of glyoxalase II (HAGH) can readily be separated by starch gel electrophoretic procedures.

At Leading Biology, the biological activity of a recombinant protein is routinely measured using a bioassay, e.g. chemotaxis or cell proliferation assay, enzyme assay, or a functional ELISA. When a recombinant protein is an enzyme, specific activity is derived from an enzymatic assay. Each enzyme is tested for potency by cleavage of a substrate. We are in the process of updating the biological activity data. If you have any questions regarding this update, please feel free to contact our technical support team.

Lyophilized from sterile 20mM Tris, 0.15 M NaCl, 10% glycerol, pH 7.5 Please contact us for any concerns or special requirements. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hard copy of CoA.

The recombinant human HAGH consisting of 270 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 30.2 kDa. It migrates as an approximately 19 kDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions

In general, recombinant proteins are provided as lyophilized powder which are shipped at ambient temperature. Bulk packages of recombinant proteins are provided as frozen liquid. They are shipped out with blue ice unless customers require otherwise. Stable for 1 year at -20°C or below from date of shipment. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and opening the cap. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C or below. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
