| Description | PPCDC produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 224 amino acids (1-204a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 24.6kDa.PPCDC is fused to a 20 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Expression host | Escherichia Coli. |
| Formulation | The PPCDC protein solution (1mg/1ml) is formulated in 20mM Tris-HCl buffer(pH 8.0), 1mM DTT, 0.1M NaCl and 10% glycerol. |
| Protein Background | PPCDC is a member of the HFCD (homo oligomeric flavin containing Cys decarboxylase) superfamily which takes a part in the biosynthesis of coenzyme A (CoA) from pantothenate (Vitamin B). The biosynthesis of CoA from pantothenate needs several steps: the phosphorylation of pantothenate, the conversion of 4-hosphopantothenate to 4”-phosphopantetheine, the adenylation by phosphopantetheine adenylyltransferase to form dephospho-CoA and the phosphorylation by dephospho-CoA kinase to form CoA. PPCDC is a key player in this pathway. PPCDC converts 4”-phosphopantothenate into 4”-phosphopantetheine. |
| Purity | Greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Reagent Appearance | Sterile Filtered clear solution. |
| Storage | Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time.Please avoid freeze thaw cycles. |
