Introduction
Acireductone dioxygenase 1 (ADI1), a member of the acireductone dioxygenase enzyme family, plays a crucial role in methionine salvage. This metal-binding enzyme exhibits diverse functionalities based on its subcellular location, including the regulation of mRNA processing within the nucleus. Notably, ADI1 has been found to suppress MMP14-mediated cell migration. Interestingly, related pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 8 and 20.
Description
Produced in E. coli, our ADI1 protein is a non-glycosylated polypeptide chain with a molecular weight of 25.6 kDa. It consists of 216 amino acids, with residues 1 to 179 representing the ADI1 sequence. The protein is expressed with an N-terminal His-tag (37 amino acids) to facilitate purification using proprietary chromatographic methods.
Physical Appearance
The product is a clear, sterile-filtered solution devoid of any color.
Formulation
ADI1 is supplied as a 0.5 mg/ml solution in a buffer consisting of 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 0.15 M NaCl, 10% glycerol, and 1 mM DTT.
Stability
For short-term storage (up to 4 weeks), the product can be stored at 4°C. For extended storage, it is recommended to freeze the product at -20°C. To further enhance stability during long-term storage, the addition of a carrier protein such as HSA or BSA (0.1%) is advised. Repeated freeze-thaw cycles should be avoided.
Purity
The purity of our ADI1 protein is greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.
