Recombinant Full Length Human ALDH8A1 Protein, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: ALDH8A1-1417HF
• Product Overview: Human ALDH8A1 full-length ORF ( NP_072090.1, 1 a.a. - 487 a.a.) recombinant protein with GST-tag at N-terminal.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: In Vitro Cell Free System
• Tag: GST
• Protein Length: 487 amino acids
• Description: This protein belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenases family of proteins. It plays a role in a pathway of 9-cis-retinoic acid biosynthesis in vivo. This enzyme converts 9-cis-retinal into the retinoid X receptor ligand 9-cis-retinoic acid, and has approximately 40-fold higher activity with 9-cis-retinal than with all-trans-retinal. Therefore, it is the first known aldehyde dehydrogenase to show a preference for 9-cis-retinal relative to all-trans-retinal. Three transcript variants encoding distinct protein isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]
