GALE

Alternative Names: UDP-glucose 4-epimerase, UDP-galactose 4 epimerase, EC=5.1.3.2, Galactowaldenase, GALE, SDR1E1, FLJ95174, FLJ97302.

GALE is a homodimeric epimerase enzyme involved in the third step of galactose metabolism in organisms such as bacteria, plants, and mammals. Its main function is to catalyze the conversion of UDP-glucose to UDP-galactose, which is crucial for the synthesis of galactose-containing proteins and fats. These molecules play important roles in various cellular functions including chemical signaling, building cellular structures, molecule transport, and energy production.

Product Description

Recombinant Human UDP-Galactose-4-Epimerase is an enzyme that belongs to the epimerase family. It plays a critical role in the biosynthesis of carbohydrates by catalyzing the interconversion of UDP-galactose and UDP-glucose. This enzyme has a molecular weight of approximately 36 kDa and is essential for various biological processes, including glycosylation and cell signaling. Its recombinant form is commonly used in research and biotechnology applications for studying carbohydrate metabolism and related pathways.

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
