Sequence Info : Full Length

Tag Info : N-terminal GST-tagged

Theoretical MW : 52.9 kDa

Storage Buffer : Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.

Endotoxin Level : Not tested-

Biological Activity : Not tested

Storage : Short term: -20°C; Long term: -80°C. Minimize freeze and thaw cycles.

Research Area : Signal Transduction

Restriction : For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures, drug use, or for administration to humans or animals.

Relevance : Catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of several pentoses, tetroses, trioses, alpha-dicarbonyl compounds and L-xylulose. Participates in the uronate cycle of glucose metabolism. May play a role in the water absorption and cellular osmoregulation in the proximal renal tubules by producing xylitol, an osmolyte, thereby preventing osmolytic stress from occurring in the renal tubules.

Involvement in disease : Pentosuria (PNTSU)

Subcellular location : Membrane, Peripheral membrane protein

Protein Families : Short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family

Tissue Specificity : Highly expressed in kidney, liver and epididymis. In the epididymis, it is mainly expressed in the proximal and distal sections of the corpus region. Weakly or not expressed in brain, lung, heart, spleen and testis.
