Recombinant human BDH2 protein
BDH2, also known as DHRS6, belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family. This protein may play an important role in the peripheral utilization of 3-hydroxybutyrate. The cytoplasmic localization with its high ratio of oxidized NAD+, the NAD+ dependence and the kinetic parameters of BDH2 make it suitable to convert high levels of circulating 3-hydroxybutyrate into acetoacetate. Recombinant human BDH2 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography.
