| Description | AKR1D1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 326 amino acids (1-326 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 37.3kDa. The AKR1D1 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Expression host | Escherichia Coli. |
| Formulation | The AKR1D1 protein solution (1mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.5), 1mM DTT, 0.1M NaCl and 10% glycerol. |
| Protein Background | Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member D1 (AKR1D1) belongs to the AKR superfamily. The AKR family proteins are soluble NADPH oxidoreductases, which have vital roles in the metabolism of drugs, carcinogens and reactive aldehydes. AKR1D1 is also responsible for the catalysis of the 5-beta-reduction of bile acid intermediates and steroid hormones that carry a delta (4)-3-1 structure. AKR1D1 is highly expressed in the liver, colon and testis. Deficiency of the AKR1D1 enzyme may contribute to hepatic dysfunction. |
| Purity | Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Reagent Appearance | Sterile filtered colorless solution. |
| Stability | Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. |
