Recombinant Human RPE (C-6His)

Description

EnkiLife provides the Recombinant Human RPE (C-6His) protein,aslo know as Ribulose-Phosphate 3-Epimerase,Ribulose-5-Phosphate-3-Epimerase,RPE,HUSSY-17, which features high purity, high activity, and high stability. It can be applied in scientific research, biopharmaceuticals, and other fields.Purity:Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE;Endotoxin Level:<1 EU/µg as determined by LAL test.;Construction:Recombinant Human Ribulose-Phosphate 3-Epimerase is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Met1-Arg228 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.Accession:Q96AT9-1. Expression Host:E.coli.Species:Human.Predicted Molecular Mass:25.9 KDa. Background:Ribulose-Phosphate 3-Epimerase (RPE) is a member of the Ribulose-Phosphate 3-Epimerase family. RPE exists as a homodimer and catalyzes the reversible epimerization of D-ribulose 5-phosphate to D-xylulose 5-phosphate. RPE binds one divalent metal cation per subunit and contains tightly bound Fe2+ when produced in E. coli, but the physiological cofactor may be Co2+, Mn2+ or Zn2+. It has been shown that RPE participates in 3 metabolic pathways: pentose phosphate pathway, pentose and glucuronate interconversions, and carbon fixation.
