PNP Recombinant Protein

Source : Escherichia Coli. PNP Human Recombinant fused with a 20 amino acid His tag at N-terminus produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 309 amino acids (1-289 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 34.2kDa. The PNP is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. PNP is a member of the PNP/MTAP phosphorylase family of proteins. PNP catalyzes the reversible phosphorolysis of ribonucleosides and 2'-deoxyribonucleosides with specificity for guanine, hypoxanthine and their analogs. PNP deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disease linked to a severe defect in T-lymphocyte function and neurologic disorder in children, comprising four percent of combined immunodeficiency cases.
