Recombinant Human LIPE Protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: LIPE-017H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human LIPE protein (2-1076) with a N-terminal His-tag was expressed in Sf21 insect cells using a baculovirus expression system

Specification

• Description: The protein encoded by this gene has a long and a short form, generated by use of alternative translational start codons. The long form is expressed in steroidogenic tissues such as testis, where it converts cholesteryl esters to free cholesterol for steroid hormone production. The short form is expressed in adipose tissue, among others, where it hydrolyzes stored triglycerides to free fatty acids.
