Introduction
FHIT enzyme cleaves adenosine 5'' PPP 5'' A to yield AMP and ADP. FHIT gene includees the regular fragile site FRA3B on chromosome 3. Alterations and deletions of the FHIT gene are highly linked to the genesis and establishment of human tumors of the lung, cervix, breast, colon, stomach and pancreas. In normal cells, FHIT functions as a tumor suppressor and physically relates with ubiquitin conjugating enzyme 9.
Description
FHIT Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 155 amino acids (1-147 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 17.9 kDa. FHIT protein is fused to an 8 amino acid His tag at C-terminus and is purified by standard chromatography.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
FHIT Human solution containing 20mM Tris-HCl pH-8 & 10% glycerol.
Stability
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
