Recombinant human Adenylate kinase 2 protein
Adenylate kinase (AK; adenosine triphosphate-adenosine monophosphate [ATP-AMP] phospho-transferase, EC 2. 7. 4. 3) is a ubiquitous monomeric enzyme involved energy metabolism of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Three isozymes (AK1, AK2 and AK3) are characterized in vertebrates. Expression of these isozymes is tissue-specific and developmentally regulated. AK2 is localized in the mitochondrial intermembrane space and may play a role in apoptosis. Recombinant human AK2 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
