Alpha Enolase, Recombinant Human, aa1-434 (Enolase 1)

Alpha-enolase, also known as Enolase 1, is one of three enolase isoenzymes and a glycolytic enzyme expressed in most tissues. This protein plays a key role in anaerobic metabolism under hypoxic conditions and may act as a cell surface plasminogen receptor during tissue invasion. Abnormal expression of alpha-enolase is associated with tumor progression in some cases of breast and lung cancer. It also has been identified as an autoantigen associated with Hashimoto's encephalopathy and severe asthma. Recombinant human alpha-enolase was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography. Recombinant protein corresponding to human alpha-enolase was expressed in E. coli. , Amino Acid Sequence:, MSILKIHARE IFDSRGNPTV EVDLFTSKGL FRAAVPSGAS TGIYEALELR DNDKTRYMGK GVSKAVEHIN KTIAPALVSK KLNVTEQEKI DKLMIEMDGT ENKSKFGANA ILGVSLAVCK AGAVEKGVPL YRHIADLAGN SEVILPVPAF NVINGGSHAG NKLAMQEFMI LPVGAANFRE AMRIGAEVYH NLKNVIKEKY GKDATNVGDE GGFAPNILEN KEGLELLKTA IGKAGYTDKV VIGMDVAASE FFRSGKYDLD FKSPDDPSRY ISPDQLADLY KSFIKDYPVV SIEDPFDQDD WGAWQKFTAS AGIQVVGDDL TVTNPKRIAK AVNEKSCNCL LLKVNQIGSV TESLQACKLA QANGWGVMVS HRSGETEDTF IADLVVGLCT GQIKTGAPCR SERLAKYNQL LRIEEELGSK AKFAGRNFRN PLAK, Specific Activity: ~10 units/ml, Biological Activity: 1 unit will convert 1.0umole of 2-phosphoglycerate to phospho(enol)pyruvate per min at pH 7.5 at 25ºC, Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only.
