Introduction
Glycylpeptide N-tetradecan-oyltransferases 2 (NMT2) is a cytoplasmic protein which is a member of the NMT family of proteins. The proteins in the NMT family catalyze the addition of a myristoyl group to the N-terminal glycine residue of eukaryotic, fungal and viral proteins. These proteins are mostly detected in the heart, gut, kidney, liver and placenta. NMT catalyzes the reaction of N-terminal myristoylation of various signaling proteins. NMT transfers myristic acid from myristoyl coenzyme A to the amino group of a protein's N-terminal glycine residue. There are several distinct NMTs which vary in the molecular weight and /or subcellular distribution.
Description
NMT2 Human Recombinant fused with a 20 amino acid His tag at N-terminus produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 518 amino acids (1-498 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 59.1kDa. The NMT2 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
The NMT2 solution (1 mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 10% glycerol, 2mM DTT and 0.1M NaCl.
