OTC Recombinant Protein
Source : E.coli. OTC Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single polypeptide chain containing 347 amino acids (33-354) and having a molecular mass of 38.9kDa.OTC is fused to a 25 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. OTC is a member of the ATCase/OTCase family. OTC has a key part in the urea cycle, catalyzing the second step in this pathway: the transformation of L-orthinine and carbamoyl phosphate to L-citrulline. In humans, the urea cycle is a vital pathway to detoxification of ammonia. Alterations in the gene encoding OTC are linked to the X-linked disorder OTCD (ornithine carbamoyltransferase deficiency) . OTCD disorder of the urea cycle is characterized by hyperammonemia.
