  Product Introduction: Dopa decarboxylase is a homodimeric, pyridoxal phosphate dependent enzyme. Dopa decarboxylase is involved in 2 metabolic pathways, synthesizing 2 significant neurotransmitters: dopamine and serotonin which both take part in numerous clinical disorders, including Parkinson's disease. Dopa decarboxylase is located in different areas of the brain and is mostly found in basal ganglia. Dopa decarboxylase catalyzes the decarboxylation of L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) to dopamine, L-5-hydroxytryptophan to serotonin and L-tryptophan to tryptamine. Defects in Dopa decarboxylase leads to aromatic L-amino-acid decarboxylase deficiency (AADCD). AADCD deficiency is an inborn error in neurotransmitter metabolism that causes combined serotonin and catecholamine deficiency.
  Product Description: Dopa decarboxylase human recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 503 amino acids (1-480 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 56.4 kDa. The Dopa decarboxylase is fused to 23 amino acid His Tag at N-terminus and purified by conventional chromatpgraphy.
• Reconstitution and Storage: Store at 4C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0. 1% HSA or BSA). Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
• Purity: Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
