Acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) dehydrogenases (ACADs) are a family of mitochondrial enzymes that catalyze the first dehydrogenation step in the bets-oxidation of fatty acyl-CoA derivatives. Several human ACADs exist and all ACADs catalyze the same initial dehydrogenation of the substrate at the beta-carbon atom and require electron transfer flavoprotein as an alectron acceptor. The predicted 415-amino acid ACAD8 protein contains many of the residues conserved in most other ACADs, including an active site glutamic acid residue and residues important for tetramer formation.

Description:
Recombinant Human ACAD-8 produced in E.Coli is a non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing amino acids 1-415 and having a total molecular mass of 47.7kD. Recombinant Human ACAD8 contains T7 tag at N-terminus and is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Applications:
• ELISA • MS • Inhibition Assays • Western Blotting

Stability:
rhACAD8 although stable at 140C for 1 week, should be stored desiccated below -180C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

Molecular Weight:
47.7kD
 Source: E. coli
Purity: 95% as determined by RP-HPLC, anion-exchange FPLC and/or reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE Silver Stained gel.
Concentration: ~0.1mg/ml
Form: Supplied as a liquid in 10mM Tris, pH 8.0, 0.1% Triton X-100, 0.002% sodium azide, 10mM DTT.
