Introduction
D-gluconate kinase or idnk is a thermosensitive protein, consists of 187 a.a and part of the gluconokinase gntK/gntV protein family. Idnk enhances the conversion of ATP + D-gluconate => ADP + 6-phospho-D-gluconate. Idnk has a crucial part in determination of gender, removal of a certain portion of 9p may result in the making of male to female (reversal of sex), that leads to a female that has the genotype of male X, Y.
Description
IDNK Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 210 amino acids (1-187) and having a molecular mass of 23.4 kDa.
IDNK is fused to a 23 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Formulation
The IDNK solution (1 mg/ml) contains 10% Glycerol, 1mM DTT, 0.15M NaCl 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 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Biological Activity
Specific activity is > 80unit/mg. One unit will convert 1.0 umole of D-gluconate to 6-phospho-Dgluconate per minute at pH 8.0 at 37˚C.
