Recombinant Human Acyl-Coenzyme A Thioesterase 13/ACOT13 (C-6His)

Source: Human Cells. MW :15.9kD. Recombinant Human Acyl-Coenzyme A Thioesterase 13 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Thr2-Asn140 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. Acyl-coenzyme A thioesterase 13, also known as Thioesterase superfamily member 2, ACOT13, THEM2 and PNAS-27, is a member of the thioesterase PaaI family. Acyl-CoA thioesterases catalyze the hydrolysis of acyl-CoAs to the free fatty acid and coenzyme A (CoASH), providing the potential to regulate intracellular levels of acyl-CoAs, free fatty acids and CoASH. THEM2 is a cytoplasmic protein and exsis in a homotetramer. THEM2 has been identified as an interacting protein of phosphatidylcholine transfer protein. THEM2 also regulates hepatic lipid and glucose metabolism.
