Introduction
DCTD is an allosteric enzyme that exists as a homohexamer and is part of the cytidine and deoxycytidylate deaminase protein family. DTCD uses zinc as a cofactor to catalyze the deamination of dCMP to dUMP, thus making the nucleotide substrate (dUMP) that is used by thymidylate synthase.
Description
DCTD Recombinant Human produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 198 amino acids (1-178 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 22.1 kDa. The DCTD is fused to a 20 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
The DCTD solution (0.5mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl pH-8, 1mM DTT, 1mM EDTA & 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 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
