Introduction
Arginase-1 is part of the urea cycle, it catalyzes the hydrolysis of arginine to ornithine and urea. There are two isoforms of mammalian arginase which differ in their tissue location, subcellular localization, immunologic crossreactivity & physiologic role. Arginase-1is a cytosolic enzyme and expressed primarily in the liver tissue. Inherited deficiency in this enzyme may lead toargininemia, which is an autosomal recessive disease in which hyperammonemia is detected.
Description
ARG1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 330 amino acids ( 1-322aa ) and having a molecular mass of 35.8 kDa. ARG1 is fused to a 8 amino acid His tag at C-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
