Recombinant human SHMT1 protein
Serine hydroxymethyltransferase 1, also known as SHMT1, belongs to the SHMT family. This protein is cellular form of serine hydroxymethyltransferase, a pyridoxal phosphate-containing enzyme that catalyzes the reversible conversion of serine and tetrahydrofolate to glycine and 5 10-methylene tetrahydrofolate. Also, SHMT1 preferentially supplies one-carbon units for thymidylate biosynthesis, depletes methylenetetrahydrofolate pools for S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) synthesis by synthesizing serine, sequesters 5-methyltetrahydrofolate and inhibits. Recombinant human SHMT1 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
