SYNONYMS
MDH-s, MDHA, MOR2.
INTRODUCTION
MDH1 catalyzes the reversible oxidation of malate to oxaloacetate, using the NAD/NADH cofactor system in the citric acid cycle. MDH1 is abundantly found in the cytoplasm and is involved in the malate-aspartate shuttle that functions in the metabolic coordination between cytosol and mitochondria. MDH1 regulates p53-dependent cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis in response to glucose deprivation.
DESCRIPTION
MDH1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 342 amino acids (1-334 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 37.4 kDa. The MDH1 is fused to an 8 amino acid His tag at C-terminus and purified by conventional chromatography.
