Recombinant Human ALKBH2 protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: ALKBH2-26040TH
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human ALKBH2(1-261aa) fused with His tag at N-terminal was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Description: Alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase alkB homolog 2, also known ALKBH2, belongs to the ALKB family. Expressed in heart, colon, liver, testis, ovary, prostate and small intestine, ALKBH2 uses iron as a cofactor and functions as a dioxygenase that catalyzes the repair of alkylated DNA and RNA containing 1-methyladenine and 3-meth-ylcytosine. ALKBH2 is functionally activated by ascorbate and requires oxygen and alpha-ketoglutarate for enzymatic activity.
