IDO1 Recombinant Protein

Source : Escherichia Coli. IDO1 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 426 amino acids (1-403a.a) and having a molecular mass of 47.7kDa. IDO1 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) catalyzes the primary and rate-limiting stage in tryptophan catabolism to N-formyl-kynurenine. IDO1 affects on various tryptophan substrates including D-tryptophan, and serotonin and is expressed in dendritic cells, monocytes, and macrophages. IDO1 takes part in a range of pathophysiological processes like neuropathology, antimicrobial and antitumor defense, immunoregulation, and antioxidant activity. IDO1 regulates T-cell behavior by its pericellular catabolization of the necessary amino acid tryptophan.
