tRNA-guanine transglycosylase (TGT, EC 2.4.2.29) synthesizes queuosine (Q), which is found in tRNAs that recognize NAU and NAC codons, encoding tyr, asn, asp, and his. Prokaryotic TGT is a single protein of 43 kD. In contrast, mammalian TGT appears to be a heterodimer consisting of a 60-kD subunit (USP14, MIM 607274) and a 43-kD catalytic subunit (QTRT1) (Deshpande and Katze, 2001 [PubMed 11255023]). Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot, ELISA, Recommended Dilution: ELISA: 1:1,000, Western Blot: 1:100-500, Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
