Description
Introduction: UDP-Glucose Pyrophosphorylase 2, also known as UGP2 is an essential intermediary in mammalian carbohydrate inter conversions. UGP2 transfers a glucose moiety from glucose-1-phosphate to MgUTP and forms UDP-glucose and MgPPi. UDP-glucose is a direct precursor of glycogen in the liver and muscle tissue, moreover in lactating mammary gland it is converted to UDP-galactose which is next converted to lactose.
Description: UGP2 Human Recombinant produced in E Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 531 amino acids (1-508 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 59.3kDa.UGP2 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques
