Pencillin Binding Protein 2X (PBP-2X) (Western Blot Control)

Protein Length: Thr50-Asp750. Protein Tag: N terminal containing a HIS tag. Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) function in the late steps of murein biosynthesis. Penicillin Binding Protein 2X is a membrane bound transpeptidase belong to the high molecular weight class B group of penicillin binding proteins. This enzyme is one of the primary targets of betalactam antibiotics in Streptococcus pneumoniae. Betalactams inactivate the PBPs by acylating an essential serine residue in the active site of these proteins. RANDOX recombinant Penicillin Binding Protein 2X comprises a 701 amino acid fragment (50-750) corresponding to the mature PBP-2X protein and is expressed in E. coli with an amino-terminal hexahistidine tag.
