Catalogue number
ENZ-192
Synonyms
Glutamic-pyruvate transaminase (alanine aminotransferase), GPT1, ALT1, AAT1, Glutamic-alanine transaminase 1, EC 2.6.1.2.
Introduction
GPT catalyzes the reversible transamination between alanine and 2-oxoglutarate to create pyruvate and glutamate. GPT has a crucial part in the intermediary metabolism of glucose and amino acids. GPT is broadly used as an indicator of liver reliability or hepatocellular destruction in clinical tests.
Description
GPT Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 516 amino acids (1-496) and having a molecular mass of 56.8 kDa.
GPT is fused to a 20 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
E.coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
The GPT solution (0.5mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 2mM DTT and 20% glycerol.
Stability
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time.
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% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
