GDH, UDP-GlcDH, UDPGDH, UGD, EC=1.1.1.22, UDP-Glc dehydrogenase, UDP-glucose 6-dehydrogenase, UGDH.
UGDH is part of the UDP-glucose/GDP-mannose dehydrogenase family and is a widely expressed enzyme localized in the liver. UGDH transfers UDP-glucose to UDP-glucuronate and thus takes part in the biosesynthesis of glycosaminoglycans such as hyaluronan, chondroitin sulfate, and heparan sulfate. These glycosylated products are ordinary molecules of the extracellular matrix and participate in signal transduction, cell migration, and cancer growth and metastasis.
UGDH Mouse Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 516 amino acids (1-493a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 57.2kDa. UGDH is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
