Introduction
GPI or Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, is a protein, part of the multifunctional phosphoglucose isomerase family, which its members take part in energy pathways. GPI is a dimeric enzyme that enhances the isomerization of glucose-6-phosphate and fructose-6- phosphate (both reversible). In mammals, GPI acts as an angiogenic factor & tumor-secreted cytokine. The enzyme also acts as a neurotrophic factor for spinal & sensory neurons.
Description
GPIHuman Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 578 amino acids (1-558) and having a molecular mass of 65.3 kDa.
GPI is fused to a 20 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Formulation
The GPI solution (1 mg/ml) contains 10% Glycerol, 1mM DTT and 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0).
Stability
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Biological Activity
Specific activity is > 400unit/mg.It is defined by the increase of NADPH in absorbance at 340 nm, resulting from the reduction of NADP. 1 unit will convert 1.0 umole of D-Fructose 6-phosphate to D-glucose 6- phosphate per minute at pH 7.4 at 37˚C.
