Description
Description: SORD Human Recombinant produced in E Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 377 amino acids (1-357 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 40.4 kDa. SORD protein is fused to a 20 amino acid His tag at N-terminus and is purified by standard chromatography.
Introduction: SORD enzyme is part of of the zinc-containing alcohol dehydrogenase family that is broadly expressed in kidney and in the lens eye. SORD enzymatically catalyzes the zinc-dependent interconversion of polyols, such as sorbitol and xylitol, to their respective ketoses
