BCAT2

Alternative Names: Branched-chain-amino-acid aminotransferase mitochondrial, BCAT(m), BCAT2, BCATM, BCAM, Placental protein 18, PP18, BCT2, ECA40.

BCAT2 is a member of the pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family that is found in mitochondria. It forms a dimer and catalyzes the initial step in producing the branched chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine, and may also transport branched chain alpha-keto acids.

Product Details

Product Description

Recombinant Human Branched Chain Amino-Acid Transaminase 2 is an enzyme belonging to the transaminase family, specifically involved in the metabolism of branched-chain amino acids. With a molecular weight of approximately 45 kDa, this enzyme plays a key role in catalyzing the transfer of amino groups between amino acids, facilitating the synthesis of proteins and other important cellular processes. Its recombinant form is commonly used in research and biotechnological applications for studying amino acid metabolism and related pathways.

Product Guarantee

If your product is within its expiration period, and has not performed according to expectations, fill out the sample return form. Return the unused sample frozen, with the auto generated packing slip to the address on the instructions. You will receive a full refund along with a replacement of the unused portion (inclusive of the failed test). Damages do not cover any additional costs incurred for failed experimentation.

Storage Instruction

Reconstituted store at -20°C or -80°C.We recommend that single use aliquots are prepared to avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

Sample Prep Instruction

1. Thaw the vial on ice, spin briefly
2. Prepare single-use or stock aliquots. This stage will depend on your final application so please adapt as appropriate. All our proteins are supplied carrier protein-free. If compatible with your work and you are storing at lower concentrations (<50 ug/ml) adding carrier protein is highly advised (usually 1% w/v high purity BSA or equivalent – ensure all buffers are sterile-filtered).
3. Prepare single-use aliquots whenever possible to avoid freeze-thaw cycles which can damage the proteins and reduce bioactivity. Store aliquots at -70 °C (or -20 °C)
4. We recommend sterile filtering after dilution in media or the final working solution
