Introduction
OGG1, a DNA glycosylase enzyme involved in base excision repair, is the primary enzyme responsible for excising 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG), a mutagenic base byproduct resulting from exposure to reactive oxygen species (ROS). OGG1 exhibits beta lyase activity, nicking DNA 3' to the lesion.
Description
Recombinant Human OGG1, produced in E. coli, is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain of 368 amino acids (specifically, amino acids 1 through 345) with a molecular weight of 41.2 kDa. This OGG1 protein is fused to a 23 amino acid His-Tag at its N-terminus and purified using proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
A clear, colorless solution that has been sterilized by filtration.
Formulation
A 0.5mg/ml solution prepared in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) at a pH of 7.4 and supplemented with 40% glycerol.
Stability
For short-term storage (up to 2-4 weeks), the product can be stored at 4°C. For extended storage, it should be frozen at -20°C. The addition of a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is recommended for long-term storage. Repeated freezing and thawing of the product should be avoided.
Purity
Purity is determined to be greater than 90.0% by SDS-PAGE analysis.
Synonyms
HMMH, HOGG1, MUTM, OGH1, AP lyase.
