		Technical Data
A1374-12B	AADAT (Kynurenine/alpha-aminoadipate Aminotransferase, Mitochondrial, 2-aminoadipate Aminotransferase, 2-aminoadipate Transaminase, Alpha-aminoadipate Aminotransferase, AadAT, KAT/AadAT, Kynurenine Aminotransferase II, Kynurenine-oxoglutarate Aminotransfe

Description:
Transaminase with broad substrate specificity. Has transaminase activity towards aminoadipate, kynurenine, methionine and glutamate. Shows activity also towards tryptophan, aspartate and hydroxykynurenine. Accepts a variety of oxo-acids as amino-group acceptors, with a preference for 2-oxoglutarate, 2-oxocaproic acid, phenylpyruvate and alpha-oxo-gamma-methiol butyric acid. Can also use glyoxylate as amino-group acceptor (in vitro).

Applications:
Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:
ELISA: 1:32,000
Western Blot: 1-3ug/ml, observed in human liver lysates on ~45kD bands
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
