Active Recombinant Human Peroxiredoxin 2, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: PRDX2-1438H
• Product Overview: PRDX2 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 198 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 21.8 kDa. The PRDX2 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Human
• Tag: His
• Description: PRDX2 is part of the peroxiredoxin family of antioxidant enzymes, which reduce hydrogen peroxide and alkyl hydroperoxides. PRDX2 takes part as an antioxidant protective role in cells. T-cells. PRDX2 has proliferative effect in cancer development or progression. If PRDX2 protection is insufficient against peroxidases, the DNA damage results in neurological disease such as Alzheimer"s or DNA damage leading to cancer.
• Form: The Peroxiredoxin solution contains 20 mM Tris-HCl pH-8, & 10% glycerol.
• Purity: Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
• Bio-activity: The specific activity was found to be approximately 200-230 pmole/min/µg. The enzymatic activity was confirmed by measuring the remaining peroxide after incubation of PRDX2 and peroxide for 20 min at room temperature. Specific activity is defined as the amount of hydroperoxide that 1 ug of enzyme can reduce at 25°C for 1 minute.
• Physical Appearance: Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
