Human IDH1 Protein

Recombinant Human IDH1 Protein is expressed from E.coli with His tag at the C-Terminus.It contains Ser2-Leu414. Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) is a metabolic enzyme that converts isocitrate to alpha-ketoglutarate (alpha-KG). Genetic gain-of-function mutations in IDH1 and IDH2 confer a neomorphic activity that allow reduction of alpha -KG to (R)-2- hydroxyglutarate, the accumulation of which results in the development of cancers like low grade gliomas and leukemia.Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) is the most frequently mutated metabolic gene in cancer.
