| Description | NANA produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 317 amino acids (1-297 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 34.7kDa.NANA is fused to a 20 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Expression host | Escherichia Coli. |
| Formulation | The NANA protein solution (1mg/ml) 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH8.0) and 20% glycerol. |
| Protein Background | N-acetylneuraminate lyase (NanA) is a member of a family of lyases, specifically the oxo-acid-lyases, which cleave carbon-carbon bonds. NanA catalyzes the cleavage of N-acetylneuraminic acid (sialic acid) to form pyruvate and N-acetyl-D-mannosamine. NanA is inhibited by reduction with NaBH4 in the presence of the substrate, which indicates that it belongs to the Schiff-base-forming Class I aldolases. NanA is strongly inhibited by Cu2+ ions, p-chloromercuribenzoate and N-bromosuccinimide, it is also inhibited competitively by the reaction product, pyruvate, and its structurally related compounds, dihydroxyacetone and DL-glyceraldehyde. |
| Purity | Greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Reagent Appearance | Sterile Filtered clear solution. |
| Stability | NANA E.Coli Recombinant although stable at 4°C for 1 week, should be stored below -18°C. Please prevent freeze thaw cycles. |
| Synonyms | N-acetylneuraminate lyase, N-acetylneuraminate pyruvate-lyase, N-acetylneuraminic acid aldolase, NALase, Sialate lyase, Sialic acid aldolase, Sialic acid lyase, nanA, npl, b3225, JW3194. |
