Description
Description: SMS Human Recombinant produced in E Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 390 amino acids (1-366) and having a molecular mass of 43.8kDa.SMS is fused to a 24 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Introduction: Spermine synthase (SMS) is amember of the spermidine/spermine synthase family. SMS is an enzyme which converts spermidine into spermine. The SMS enzyme is essential for normal viability, growth and fertility involved in polyamine metabolism. Defects in the SMS gene are the cause of Snyder-Robinson syndrome (SRS), also known as X-linked mental retardation Snyder-Robinson type. SRS is categorized by moderate intellectual deficit, hypotonia, an unsteady gait, osteoporosis, kyphoscoliosis and facial asymmetry, its transmission is X-linked recessive
