SORD Human

Source: Escherichia Coli.Sterile Filtered colorless solution.SORD, also referred to as sorbitol dehydrogenase, belongs to the zinc-containing alcohol dehydrogenase family. It is widely produced. The lens of the eyeand the kidney are the protein highest production areas. Zinc-dependent interconversion of polyols, like sorbitol and xylitol, are enzymatically catalysed to their respective ketoses by SORD.SORD Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 357 amino acids (1-357a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 38.3kDa.SORD is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Functional Assay

Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

The SORD solution (0.5mg/mL) contains 10% glycerol, 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.5) and 1mM DTT.

Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) .Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.

Specific activity > 15unit/mg. Defined by the amount of enzyme that catalyze the reduction 1.0 umole of D-fructose to D-sorbitol per minute at pH 7.5 at 37°C.
