Catalogue number
PRO-1791
Synonyms
Fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase TIGAR, TP53-induced glycolysis and apoptosis regulator, TIGAR, C12orf5.
Introduction
TIGAR is a p53-inducible enzyme which catalyzes the hydrolysis of fructose-2-6 bisphosphate (F-2-6-BP) to fructose-6-phosphate and inorganic phosphate. F-2-6-BP is an influential activator of 6-phosphofructose-1 kinase (the rate limiting enzyme of glycolysis). By lowering the intracellular level of F-2-6-BP, TIGAR expression leads to increased glucose processing through the pentose phosphate pathway, the main cellular source for NADPH.?
Description
TIGAR Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 270 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 30.1kDa. The TIGAR is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation
TIGAR was Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in 20mM Tris-HCl, pH8.5, 150mM NaCl.
Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized TIGAR in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100μg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Stability
Lyophilized TIGAR stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated?
below -18C. Upon reconstitution TIGAR should be stored at 4C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Greater than 95.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
