NUDT14

SYNONYMS
UGPP, UGPPase, Uridine diphosphate glucose pyrophosphatase, UDPG pyrophosphatase, Nucleoside diphosphate-linked moiety X motif 14, Nudix motif 14, NUDT14.

INTRODUCTION
Uridine diphosphate glucose pyrophosphatase (NUDT14), is a part of the nudix hydrolase family. NUDT14 is a cytoplasmic protein which contains one nudix hydrolase domain and acts as the sugar donor in numerous glycosylation reactions, including those involved in the production of glycogen. NUDT14 hydrolyzes ADP-ribose into ribose 5-phosphate and AMP, and UDP-glucose to glucose 1-phosphate and UMP. NUDT14 is a homodimer which binds magnesium as a cofactor and is encoded by a gene located on human chromosome 14.

DESCRIPTION
NUDT14 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 245 amino acids (1-222) and having a molecular mass of 26.5kDa. NUDT14 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
