CTH (Cystathionine gamma-lyase, Cysteine-protein Sulfhydrase, Gamma-cystathionase)

This gene encodes a cytoplasmic enzyme in the trans-sulfuration pathway that converts cystathione derived from methionine into cysteine. Glutathione synthesis in the liver is dependent upon the availability of cysteine. Mutations in this gene cause cystathioninuria. Alternative splicing of this gene results in three transcript variants encoding different isoforms.\n\nApplications:\nSuitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nImmunohistochemistry (Formalin fixed paraffin embedded): 3ug/ml\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nAA Sequence:\nMQEKDASSQGFLPHFQHFATQAIHVGQDPEQWTSRAVVPPISLSTTFKQGAPGQHSGFEYSRSGNPTRNCLEKAVAALDGAKYCLAFASGLAATVTITHLLKAGDQIICMDDVYGGTNRYFRQVASEFGLKISFVDCSKIKLLEAAITPETKLVWIETPTNPTQKVIDIEGCAHIVHKHGDIILVVDNTFMSPYFQRPLALGADISMYSATKYMNGRSDVVMGLVSVNCESLHNRLRFLQNSLGAVPSPIDCYLCNRGLKTLHVRMEKHFKNGMAVAQFLESNPWVEKVIYPGLPSHPQHELVKRQCTGCTGMVTFYIKGTLQHAEIFLKNLKLFTLAESLGGFESLAELPAIMTHASVLKNDRDVLGISDTLIRLSVGLEDEEDLLEDLDQALKAAHPPSGSHS\n\nStorage and Stability:\nMay be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only.
