GAPDH Mouse, Active

Source: E.coli.Sterile Filtered colorless solution.GAPDH is a catalytic enzyme normally known to play a role in glycolysis. GAPDH exists as a tetramer composed of 36-kDa subunits and has a range of intracellular functions. GAPDH catalyzes the reversible reduction of 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate to glyceraldehyde 3-phosphophate in the presence of NADPH. Besides functioning as a glycolytic enzyme in cytoplasm, GAPDH has function in intracellular processes such as membrane fusion, microtubule bundling, phosphotransferase activity, nuclear RNA export, DNA replication and DNA repair. GAPDH catalyzes a vital energy-yielding step in carbohydrate metabolism, the reversible oxidative phosphorylation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate in the presence of inorganic phosphate and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) . The enzyme exists as a tetramer of identical chains.GAPDH Mouse Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 356 amino acids (1-333a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 38.2kDa.GAPDH is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
