Catalogue number
ENZ-181
Synonyms
ODC, Ornithine decarboxylase 1, EC 4.1.1.17.
Introduction
Ornithine decarboxylase is the preliminary and rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway of polyamines and it takes part in the alteration of ornithine to putrescine. ODC1 is a key member of various
biological processes, such as cell growth, transformation, differentiation and apoptosis. Overexpression of the ODC1 gene has a vital part in cell proliferation and the progress of cancer.
Description
ODC1 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 484 amino acids (1-461) and having a molecular mass of 53.5 kDa.
ODC1 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
E.coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
The ODC1 solution (0.5mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 1mM DTT, 0.1M NaCl and 10% glycerol.
