Introduction
Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) catalyzes the primary and rate-limiting stage in tryptophan catabolism to N-formyl-kynurenine. IDO1 affects on various tryptophan substrates including D-tryptophan, and serotonin and is expressed in dendritic cells, monocytes, and macrophages. IDO1 takes part in a range of pathophysiological processes like neuropathology, antimicrobial and antitumor defense, immunoregulation, and antioxidant activity. IDO1 regulates T-cell behavior by its pericellular catabolization of the necessary amino acid tryptophan.
Description
IDO1 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 426 amino acids (1-403a.a) and having a molecular mass of 47.7kDa.
IDO1 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
The IDO1 solution (0.5mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 0.15M NaCl, 20% glycerol and 1mM DTT.
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).
Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Biological Activity
Specific activity is > 300 pmol/min/ug, and is defined
as the amount of enzyme that hydrolyze 1.0 pmole of L-Tryptophan to
N-formyl-Lkynurenine per minute at pH 6.5 at 25C.
