Recombinant human FHIT protein
FHIT (fragile histidine triad) is an enzyme that cleaves adenosine 5' PPP 5' A to yield AMP and ADP. FHIT gene encompasses the common fragile site FRA3B on chromosome 3. Alterations and deletions of the FHIT gene are strongly linked to the genesis and establishment of human tumors of the lung, cervix, breast, colon, stomach and pancreas. In normal cells, FHIT may act as a tumor suppressor. This protein physically associates with ubiquitin conjugating enzyme 9. Recombinant human FHIT, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography.
