Purity: > 85 % by SDS - PAGE Format: Liquid. In 20mM Tris-HCl buffer(pH 8.0) containing 10% glycerol, 1mM DTT, 0.1M NaCl . NuDT5 is a member of the nudix hydrolase family which eliminate toxic nucleotide derivatives from the cell. NuDT5 hydrolyzes ADP-ribose and ADP-mannose in the presence of magnesium, and also hydrolyzes other nucleotide sugars with low activity such as ADP-glucose and diadenosine diphosphate. As a nudix hydrolase, NuDT5 contains a central nudix motif and functions to eliminate toxic nucleotide metabolites from the cell while maintaining the levels of signaling nucleotides. NuDT5 is widely expressed but is most abundant in liver as a homodimer. Recombinant human NuDT5 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
