Recombinant Human KMO Protein (1-486 aa), His-tagged

• Cat.No.: KMO-1434H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human KMO Protein (1-486 aa) is produced by Yeast expression system. This protein is fused with a 6xHis tag at the N-terminal. Research Area: Metabolism. Protein Description: Full Length.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Yeast
• Tag: His
• Protein Length: 1-486 aa
• Description: Catalyzes the hydroxylation of L-kynurenine (L-Kyn) to form 3-hydroxy-L-kynurenine (L-3OHKyn). Required for synthesis of quinolinic acid, a neurotoxic NMDA receptor antagonist and potential endogenous inhibitor of NMDA receptor signaling in axonal targeting, synaptogenesis and apoptosis during brain development. Quinolinic acid may also affect NMDA receptor signaling in pancreatic beta cells, osteoblasts, myocardial cells, and the gastrointestinal tract.
