Description
Introduction: Acyl-CoA synthetase family member 2, also known as ACSF2 is a member of the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family. Acyl-CoA synthetases are a family of enzymes which catalyze the thioesterification of fatty acids with coenzymeA to form activated intermediates, which play a basic part in lipid metabolism as well as homeostasis of lipid-related processes. ACSF2 is required for the complex of lipid synthesis, energy production via beta-oxidation, protein acylation and fatty-acid dependent transcriptional regulation. Moreover, ACSF2 is required for fatty acid import into cells by the process of vectorial acylation.
Description: ACSF2 Human Recombinant produced in E Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 597 amino acids (42-615 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 66.1kDa. ACSF2 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques
