Introduction
Phosphoribosylaminoimidazole Carboxylase (PAICS) is an enzyme involved in nucleotide biosynthesis and particularly in purine biosynthesis. PAICS is a bifunctional enzyme containing phosphoribosylaminoimidazole carboxylase activity at its N-terminal region and phosphoribosylaminoimidazole succinocarboxamide synthetase at its C-terminal region. PAICS catalyzes the conversion of 5'-phosphoribosyl-5-aminoimidazole(AIR) into 5'-phosphoribosyl-4-carboxy-5-aminoimidazole (CAIR) as described in the reaction. PAICS catalyzes steps six and seven of purine biosynthesis.
Description
PAICS Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 448 amino acids (1-425) and having a molecular mass of 49.5kDa.
PAICS is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
