Mitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, Recombinant, Human (mGPD)

Recombinant mGPD comprises a 558 amino acid fragment (43-600) corresponding to the GlpA domain fragment of the mature mGPD protein and is expressed in E. coli with an amino-terminal hexahistidine tag.\n\nMitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (mGPD) is a Ca2+-sensitive, FAD-binding protein, located on the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane. mGPD catalyses the oxidation of glycerol-3-phosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) with concomitant reduction of the enzyme-bound FAD. Two isoforms have been described for mGPD. Isoform 1 comprises 727aa residues, whereas isoform 2 lacks 126aa residues of the N- terminus.\n\nApplications: \nSuitable for use in ELISA. Other applications not tested.\n \nRecommended Dilution:\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nStorage and Stability:\nMay be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, add sterile glycerol (40-50%), aliquot and store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
