LUXS, E.coli (His)

LUXS proteins are critical for the synthesis of bacterially secreted autoinducer 2 (AI-2), which promotes communication between cell density and environmental metabolism. LUXS is critical for quorum sensing and catalyzes S-ribosylhomocysteine (RHC) to homocysteine (HC) and 4,5-dihydroxy-2,3-pentanedione (DPD), revealing its enzymatic role in AI-2 production. LUXS Protein, E.coli (His) is the recombinant E. coli-derived LUXS protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag.
