BCAT2 Recombinant Protein

Source : Escherichia Coli. BCAT2 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 390 amino acids (28-392) and having a molecular mass of 43.9kDa.BCAT2 is fused to a 25 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Branched Chain Amino-Acid Transaminase 2 (BCAT2) is a member of the class-IV pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. BCAT2 is a branched chain aminotransferase found in mitochondria. BCAT2 forms a dimer which catalyzes the first step in the production of the branched chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine. In addition, BCAT2 may actn as a transporter of branched chain alpha-keto acids.
