Recombinant human ASPA protein
ASPA, also known as aspartoacylase, is expressed in liver, lung and kidney tissue, as well as in skeletal muscle and in cerebral white matter. Existing as a homodimer, Aspartoacylase functions to catalyze the deacetylation of N-acetylaspartic acid (NAA) (a protein whose hydrolysis is crucial to maintenance of intact white matter) to produce acetate and L-aspartate. Recombinant human ASPA protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography.
